Hi Amor, I have recompiled Squid with the following parameters. ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/squid --enable-async-io=8 --enable-storeio="ufs,aufs,diskd" --enable-removal-policies="lru,heap" --enable-delay-pools --enable-cache-digests --enable-underscores --enable-icap-client --enable-follow-x-forwarded-for --enable-arp-acl --enable-esi --enable-zph-qos --disable-translation --with-large-files --with-filedescriptors=65536 --disable-ipv6 --enable-linux-netfilter DISK I/O is just like before, on average 5% I would say. I am using the default removal policy, not heap. Well after recompiling it, I can see the Median DNS Lookup time reduced by 10 times are the browsing experience is improved than before. Thank you for that. But those two domains i.e www.music.com.bd and www.djmaza.com problem is not solved. I cannot determine exactly what is stopping it to load the site fast, indeed it loads may be 10 minutes later. To my (amateur) understanding, the problem is with the ads.clicksor.com and the facebook widgets it tries to load, but I am not 100% sure. Can anyone try to load the site again and see if the problem persists, or how should I exempt those URLs from being caching. I think the URLS are :- 1) http://ads.clicksor.com/showAd.php?pid=102683&adtype=1&sid=152482&zone= 2) http://ads.clicksor.com/showAd.php?pid=102683&adtype=9&sid=152482&zone= 3) http://www.facebook.com/ajax/connect/activity_widget.php?__a=1&site=www.music.com.bd&width=350&height=225&header=false&colorscheme=light&border_color=%23006a4e&post_form_id=7c21c99b9bd83930bb871649bf465fcf&user=505688880&nb_activities=5&newest=0 URL 3 waiting time sometimes goes more than 800ms. Please advise.
