Hi Amos , thanks for reply. But I think using large rock will let the memory cache size be >32 ??? am I correct ? I mean although im not using rock store , but I was thinking will have memory size >32Kb So , I keep the aufs size which I assume will help me and will let me break the 32kB limitation .. but it seems not like I was planning !!!! So m my previous config was using aufs with large rock needed in memory size which is not what I was planning ?!!!! can you plz explain me why my previous config don’t have luck with memory >> 32KB?? So for now , as u told me I removed all aufs drivers and added only rock dir as below : cache_dir rock /ssd1 90000 max-size=32768 swap-timeout=350 max-swap-rate=350 cache_dir rock /ssd2 90000 max-size=32768 swap-timeout=350 max-swap-rate=350 cache_dir rock /ssd3 90000 max-size=32768 swap-timeout=350 max-swap-rate=350 cache_dir rock /ssd4 30000 max-size=32768 swap-timeout=350 max-swap-rate=350 And only mean size I can see now is 18 Kb ??!!!! Why ??? I had tried another trial , I put memory_cache_shared off , squid cant be started all all kids is being killed and stared again and so on !

I am not sure if that was fixed when large-rock support was added. Should have been, but maybe not. For most of the per-worker settings you have are undone by the global settings at the end of the config between http_port and WCCP config. > > Can you correct nme about setting cache_mem directive ? also guide me > wts needed to enable caching large object size like 512k - 1 M or even > 2 M > Try "memory_cache_shared off" at the top of your config.
