I have a server with 8Go memory on 4 processors.
Currently my squid proxy 3.2 and my Debian using around 2Go memory in the full production mode.

I would like to try to add a kind of "temporary" cache in tmpfs using around 3.5go of Squid Cache./

That's what memory cache is for... while you loose it after restarting squid, by using tmpfs you'd have duplicate data in memory...

/Did it possible to do this on the squid.conf ? :/

yes.

Means that the tmpfs is monted on /var/cache/squid-tmpfs
Each instance will have 875 Mb on a tmpfs and when the size is full it will automatically start to run the standard cache based on disk.

No, squid can't distinct bedtween multiple cache_dirs like this.
This is just what memory cache is for...

If you have 64bit kernel, you can try increasing cache_mem to e.g. 4GB
