Hi group Thanks for the answer! I like those cases like yours. Any other cases? Another question. What is the most important component for squid? RAM or CPU? Why I'm making this question, because when I installed squid for 120 users, the ram went to the sky.... But your're mentioning more CPU than RAM as a primary component to look at Could you explain this? Thanks in advanced 2008/7/2 Jonathan Chretien <jonathan_chretien@xxxxxxxxxxx>: > > http://www.deckle.co.za/squid-users-guide/Installing_Squid > > On my side, I run Squid on a HP VL420 P4 1.8 or 2.1ghz, 768meg of ram, 20gig Seagate IDE Hard Drive for approximatly 125 users. > > The maximum load, that I got, is .70 (1 minute). My CPU peak sometimes at 40% but most of the time, it's running most of the time at idle. I have a peak time at lunch time and break. My average CPU is approximatly at 5% and peak at 40%. I saw a 50-60% and a load at .90 at the beginning when I had some problem with my Apple computer and the NTLM Auth. (I still had this problem but I did a bypass for my apple computer) > > If I compare with my current setup, for an another 150 users, probably 1-1.5 gig of Ram is important and probably changing my Seagate IDE HardDrive for a SCSI 10k-15k rpm U160 or U320. > > Jonathan > > > > >> Date: Wed, 2 Jul 2008 15:52:16 -0500 >> From: cabo81@xxxxxxxxx >> To: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >> Subject: Squid performance for 600 users >> >> Hi group >> >> I wonder if a debian box with 1Gb RAM could run squid to block child >> porn sites for 600 users aprox. >> >> Is possible? would be good? a checklist to know the requisites for squid? >> >> Thanks in advanced > > _________________________________________________________________ > Envoie un sourire, fais rire, amuse-toi!
