Hey All,

I'm thinking about building a web Cache server and I was thinking
about getting one of those cheap'o Shuttle slim computers with the
dual core Atom Processor. I was just wondering if Squid Web Caching
will run on the Atom Processor before I invest in it?

Thanks,

Hi,

I've tested on Acer AO722 w/ AMD C-60 / FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT... as a
local cache and it works.

Yes, the only things to be aware of are RAM requirements if your box is slimline in that direction. Squid default binary footprint is 6MB, but can be tuned down below 4MB by disabling a lot of the bells and whistles. Memory cache defaults to 256MB nowdays, but can be configured as low as zero bytes. Squid requires a few extra MB to run transactions (averages around ~32KB per concurrent client), so the overall slimline footprint requirements is somewhere in the order of 16MB.
