In case of replacement of failing hardware, I suggest to install the same as you had: 2.7stable6 will work for you. After the hardware replacement I recommend to plan and test an upgrade. Although the Squid development team recommends 3.2.x I prefer to go for 3.1.x because at this time there are too many problems with 3.2.x. Alternatively, you wait a few months until 3.2.x becomes more stable to migrate to 3.2.x. Marcus On 10/11/2012 12:15 PM, mc8647tv@xxxxxxxxx wrote:
I need to install a new proxy server in exchange to the current one based on Squid 2.7 STABLE 6. You already told me that on the new, 12 core, 12 GB server, I should create a hierarchy of squids to use all CPUs but I now have to replace a failing hardware. I currently use a aufs + coss cache_dir, I have about 3000 clients on a 200mbit link and traffic is passed to an upstream cache_peer (antivirus/url checker). Should I go with 3.2 or it's better to stay with 3.1 ? Which storage types are "mainstream" with new squid versions ? Thanks
