Hi, I have a "curious" case of low performance with Squid. The symptom is that every request take at least +/- 7 seconds. Even when there is a small number of clients. The browser keeps waiting and when it load, it loads fast. If I allow the client to access the web without proxy, it access really fast. So, there's no bandwidth problems - and in fact it loads fast after the "freeze" period. (with the same DNS, by the way). I've tried many things. Currently, I'm using no cache on disk (cache_dir null /tmp).So it's not related with Disk IO bottleneck. The service time information: Median Service Times (seconds) 5 min 60 min: HTTP Requests (All): 0.49576 0.32154 Cache Misses: 0.49576 0.32154 Cache Hits: 0.00000 0.00091 Near Hits: 0.22004 0.15888 Not-Modified Replies: 0.00000 0.00494 DNS Lookups: 0.25460 0.23291 ICP Queries: 0.00000 0.00000 But still the client can't access it fast. And what is curious: even if I access it on a time when there's no employee, the access is still slow. I've tried also many "debug_options #,9", but some of the info I was unable to interpret. The hardware is enough for the demand - but maybe the settings are wrong. Version 2.6.STABLE21 (CentOS) Any hints? Thanks. Luiz.
