Meanwhile the '-I' option to squid makes it possible to run multiple squids serving the same port on the same machine, so you can make use of more CPUs. I've got scripts surrounding squid startups to take advantage of that. Let me know if you're interested in having them. Currently I run a couple machines using 2 squids each on 2 bonded gigabit interfaces in order to get over 200 Mbytes/second throughput. - Dave On Fri, Oct 03, 2008 at 12:01:26PM +1300, Amos Jeffries wrote: > Roy M. wrote: > >Hello, > > > >Why squid is running as a single thread program, wouldn't it perform > >better if allow run as multithreaded as SMP or Quad core CPU are > >popular now? > > > >Thanks. > > Simply 'allowing' squid to run as multi-threaded is a very big change. > We are doing what we can to work towards it.
