I'm trying to increase the membuf= parameter on COSS, but I had to reduce the cache_dir (from 65520) size in order to do it: cache_dir coss /cache/coss1 60520 max-size=1048575 max-stripe-waste=32768 block-size=4096 membufs=100 cache_dir coss /cache/coss2 60520 max-size=1048575 max-stripe-waste=32768 block-size=4096 membufs=100 cache_dir coss /cache/coss3 60520 max-size=1048575 max-stripe-waste=32768 block-size=4096 membufs=100 Do you guys have any idea if changing from 15 to 100 is enough? Is there a way I can test this? As far as the slice size goes, I don't know either :) I compiled squid with default COSS options, so I guess it's the 1MB default stripe size. Is this it? One last thing: Where there's a documentation commenting on the real-life benefits on using --enable-coss-aio-ops? Is there any? I could help running some tests and create some documentation for the COSS wiki page, if you think it'll help other people...I just need help with some pointers on how to go about testing it right.
