I have a strange issue happening with my squid (v 3.1.8) 2 squid servers with sibling - sibling setup in accel mode. after running the squid for 2 to 3 days, the HIT rate has gone down. from 50% HIT to 34% for TCP and from 34% HIT to 12% for UDP. store.log shows that even fresh requests are NOT getting stored onto disk and getting RELEASED rightaway. This issue is with both squids... store.log entry: 1285176036.341 RELEASE -1 FFFFFFFF 7801460962DF9DCA15DE95562D3997CB 200 1285158415 -1 1285230415 application/x-download -1/279307 GET http://.... requests have a max-age of 20Hrs. squid.conf: cache_dir aufs /squid/var/cache 20480 16 256 cache_mem 1536 MB memory_pools off cache_swap_low 50 cache_swap_high 55 refresh_pattern . 0 20% 1440 filesystem is resizerfs with RAID-0. only 11GB used for the cache. $cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr 640 0 1525202 $ cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max 1525202 Any help is highly appreciated. thanks.
