I hope you noticed that squid3 is still in development...
Yeah :) I've been playing with it for a while. When I encounter problems, it's sometimes hard to figure out if it's a problem with squid 3 or squid in general. I mainly wanted to see if anyone else encountered the same type of problem.

I thought cache_memory was used for 'hot' objects. I'm currently using "heap LFUDA" as my memory_replacement_policy.
It's a pretty waste of space, I'd say. for 60GB drives, I'd use size 40000 also, 128 L1 dirs is too much for 2GB cache_dirs, I have 64 on 30GB cache_dirs (but this should not cause any problem)
Yeah. I'm aware that there's loads of unused space. Performance seems to improve (if slightly) when I have the cache_dir memory low. I've looked at the FAQ and know that I _should_ be able to use more. Right now I'm mainly trying to get a basic working configuration that I can start from. I'd like to be using more cache_mem too, but I've decreased it for the same reason. I'll fix the L1 dirs at least, even though it probably doesn't mean much.
this may be an IRQ conflict, or bad drivers for SCSI/net card.
I doubt it, but I'll test on another system to see if the problem persists...
what sizes are those objects of?
Most are between 5-10k in size.

I'm starting to believe the same thing.
