Use 127.0.0.1 to contact it. Packet handling is faster over the localhost interface than trying to fit into the external traffic stream then be turned back into the machine. > > cache_mem 1024 MB > > maximum_object_size 1 GB > maximum_object_size_in_memory 64 KB You can raise this. 1GB or memory cache gives your few PCs plenty of space. > > cache_replacement_policy heap LFUDA > memory_replacement_policy heap GDSF > > cache_dir aufs /Squid 16384 64 512 > > quick_abort_min -1 KB > quick_abort_max -1 KB > quick_abort_pct 100 > > pipeline_prefetch on > half_closed_clients off > > refresh_pattern -i \.index.(html|htm)$ 0 40% 10080 > refresh_pattern -i \.(html|htm|css|js)$ 1440 40% 40320 > > refresh_pattern -i \.(gif|png|jpg|jpeg|ico)$ 1440 40% 43200 > refresh_pattern -i \.(iso|avi|wav|mp3|mp4|mpeg|swf|flv|x-flv)$ > 1440 40% 43200 > refresh_pattern -i > \.(deb|rpm|exe|zip|tar|tgz|ram|rar|bin|ppt|doc|tiff)$ 1440 40% 43200 > > refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080 > refresh_pattern ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440 > > refresh_pattern -i (/cgi-bin/|\?) 0 0% 0 > refresh_pattern . 0 40% 40320 > > coredump_dir /var/spool/squid3 > > redirect_children 20 redirect_* is obsolete.
