I'd appreciate some enlightenment as to how Squid handles large files
WRT memory and disk.
In particular;
- squid.conf says that memory is used for "in-transit objects."
What exactly is kept in memory for in-transit objects; just metadata,
or the whole thing?
- if something is in memory cache, does it get copied when it is
requested (because it is in-transit)?
- How does sendfile support in 2.6 affect this?
- Does anyone have any experiences they'd care to relate regarding
memory-caching very large objects?
Thanks!
