If you want to increase performance, look forward to these as you havent say anything about your configuration. - use syslog, if you are using squid27 instead writing logs or your may turn logs off in 3.1 if you dont care, - sent as first line of ACL/HTTP_ACCESS filtering all your Deny without asking for authentication yet, this will speed up - see your squidclient mngr:info page to see in exactly what action you are delaying more. - install a local bind to speed up dns requests, - change your cache policies to other thing more than LRU - place more physicall memory for your mem_cache - review your top output to see if you dont have high CPU IO waiting, if so then you must be carefully with disc writting - if you can, use reiserfs in your disc_cache partition - us a higher authentication cache time and place alsomore helpers if this is a bottle-neck just wondering this could help LD
