I'm trying to get the feel of tuning/monitoring the cache_mem parameter in 3.2 SMP. Little real mem used, don't know exactly where to look right. config: linux 64bit, workers 2, no disk cache, 3GB shared mem cache: Cache information for squid: Hits as % of all requests: 5min: 11.3%, 60min: 13.0% Hits as % of bytes sent: 5min: 2.1%, 60min: 1.4% Memory hits as % of hit requests: 5min: 55.3%, 60min: 52.8% Disk hits as % of hit requests: 5min: 25.2%, 60min: 12.7% (?without disk cache?)
