G'day,
My next question!
What are people using as refresh_patterns for normal ISP forward
caching? I'd like to put up a wiki page with a list of useful
refresh patterns, especially if you've managed to enable caching
of content such as streaming http media/flv, google earth, etc.
Basically, anything you've got that increases Squid caching of
traffic above the default of ~10% would be great.
I'll summarise and write up a wiki article.
Thanks!
here's ours...

with 64GB cache_dir and 18MB max_obj_size, we get around 35% Byte hit and
48% request hit for client_http.requests = 141.127786/sec.
