wt a nice feedback from you , u really encouraged me to start squid 3.3.9
now !!!!!  with it ,
but plz  have a look and make a verification ,
is it 16  or  24 real cores :

here is /proc/cpuinfo result :

*processor       : 0
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 6
model           : 45
model name      : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 0 @ 2.30GHz
This should be it:
http://ark.intel.com/products/64593

Which is a 6 cores CPU each with 15M cache which is 2.5 MB cache for each real core. I do not know how the threading thing works exactly but it suppose to give the software the benefit of *thinking* that there are couple more processors and by that utilizing the maximum COMPUTATIONS from the CPU. All the above assumes that there is a limit to the software and the hardware can help the software a bit on execution scheduling etc.

Dont think it's something that is not helping but it's good to know that the limit is 12 real cores that can execute in 2.3-2.8 which is a lot of processing power.. What it means that you do not have 24*2.8 and it means about 10k Requests per sec at top(while squid might take even more but I still not tested it on this kind of machine with SMP). What is 100% is that this machine can act as an EDGE router for about 40+GBps NP.

(about the threading thing it's like the hardware knows that there are four places in a cycle that can be utilized and it can be utilized only if a computation is scheduled so in a case of a thread on a CPU there is a higher chance of utilizing one more part of each cycle for computation rather then losing this part of this cycle forever.
It's an accurate description but it's more then nothing)
