Hi, I am getting fairly slow times (this is more an observation than looking at the logs) when loading web pages. I am the only person on an ADSL2+ connection, with squid setup and caching (see squid.conf below). Does anyone have any ideas on how i could make it more responsive? Any other comments on the conf.file appreciated too. I will be installing SmartFilter on the server too, but have not as yet. The Server is running RHEL ES4, with 250GB SATA drive and 1GB Ram.
