Hi, I would build with the following in mind: 1. Better to have a separate disk for the cache stores. 2. Have a COSS store for objects less than 256k. And let AUFS handle larger objects. 3. Don't have more than 75% of your disk allocated. 4. Only one AUFS store per disk. But you can have more than one COSS. 5. RAID is highly discouraged. 6. Regex is best avoided Regards, HASSAN On 2010-08-07, Mike Diggins <mike.diggins@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > I'm setting up a RHEL 5.3 64-bit Squid installation using > squid-2.7.STABLE9.
