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. Squid 2.5 Stable 14. The configuration is pretty simple. '16 256' is a bit small for a 120 gig cache. You might want to up that to at least 64 256. Is the server doing anything else besides Squid? Whats 'vmstat 1' show the CPU load is like? What about memory and disk usage? Other than that, i'd try it out without the authentication ACLs to start with. I'd check your nameserver configuration and make sure the nameservers return results quickly. Adrian -- - Xenion - http://www.xenion.com.au/ - VPS Hosting - Commercial Squid Support -
