Re: Squid with more storage!

Ghassan,

I'm not sure adding additional hard drives will improve the performance of
Squid a great deal, if you're caching a lot of large objects over a long
period of time then it may prove beneficial. But if you're looking for
performance you would be better investing in more memory, if you can serve
the majority of 'hot objects' (frequently accessed pages / content) from
memory your response times will improve greatly. The response time for
retrieving an object from disk will be much greater due to the overhead in
disk / controller I/O.

Hope that helps
Gareth
