Thanks Chris I am seeing peaks between Squid and Clients. Is there any way to force cached data also to go thru delay pool? What is delay_initial_bucket_level. If I make it 0 or make it 100 , what will happen? Pl give some example. I have read FAQ and other documents but I couldn't understand this. Another thing which I want to know is - Is delay pool going to take more resources from server? Do I need to add more memory or CPU? I am planning to use class c delay pools. And I have nearly 3000 users.

Between the Internet and Squid or between Squid and the clients. Cached traffic is not affected by delay pools. >2.

Look for a menu object relating to delay pools. I don't have a server set up with delay pools, so I can't be more specific. >Thanks - LK > > Chris Disclaimer **************************************************************************************************************************** The information contained in this e-mail, any attached files, and response threads are confidential and may be legally privileged.
