Hi2all! My users are experiencing problems with squid few hours after it starts. I have following configuration: P4 3GHz, 1.1 GB RAM, CentOS, Squid 2.6. This is a virtual machine and also a DNS server. Number of active users at one time is about 40-50. The problem is, when I start Squid, it works fine for couple of hours, and then the behaviour from the client side is that pages stop to download 10-20 secs, like everything stops, then it starts back and so on. When it stops, I hit refresh button and then it starts to download again. In that time, my free memory is around 400MB, that's some 45%, it isn't swapping, cpu is low. I believe my configuration is wrong, and need some help tunning it. Parameters are majorly by default values. So, I attach my squid.conf: http_port 10.19.2.3:8080 hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin ? acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? cache deny QUERY acl apache rep_header Server ^Apache broken_vary_encoding allow apache cache_mem 32 MB cache_swap_low 90 cache_swap_high 95 maximum_object_size 4096 KB memory_replacement_policy lru cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid 1500 16 256 access_log /var/log/squid/access.log squid cache_log /var/log/squid/cache.log cache_store_log /var/log/squid/store.log pid_filename /var/run/squid.pid check_hostnames on dns_nameservers 10.19.2.3 195.29.149.196 hosts_file /etc/hosts refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080 refresh_pattern ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440 refresh_pattern . 0 20% 4320 acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 acl manager proto cache_object acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255 acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 acl SSL_ports port 443 acl Safe_ports port 80 # http acl Safe_ports port 21 # ftp acl Safe_ports port 443 # https acl Safe_ports port 70 # gopher acl Safe_ports port 210 # wais acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # unregistered ports acl Safe_ports port 280 # http-mgmt acl Safe_ports port 488 # gss-http acl Safe_ports port 591 # filemaker acl Safe_ports port 777 # multiling http acl CONNECT method CONNECT http_access allow all http_access allow manager localhost http_access deny manager http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports acl zbw_network src 10.19.0.0/16 http_access allow zbw_network http_access allow localhost http_access deny all http_reply_access allow all icp_access allow all cache_mgr administrator@xxxxxxxxxxxx mail_from administrator@xxxxxxxxxxxx mail_program postfix visible_hostname nameserver.zbw.intranet snmp_port 1234 delay_class 1 2 delay_access 1 allow zbw_network delay_access 1 deny all delay_parameters 1 -1/-1 128000/1640000 coredump_dir /var/spool/squid -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Surfing-hangs-after-period-of-time-tp16976682p16976682.html Sent from the Squid - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
