But you do. Whenever the domain name or path contains any of the byte
sequences in that regex above. The entire websites
http://www.divx.com/  and http://isohunt.com/ for example.

And whats wrong with adding more HITs ? even if they are small enough
not to use much cache space.

... but you dont have neighbours. This is also deprecated anyway.

Why the segregation between diskd and aufs?

The only difference between these cache types is the method if I/O
performed accessing the disk. AUFS is threaded SMP, diskd is
multi-process SMP.

NP: FreeBSD 10 seem to have resolved the issues Squid AUFS has with
older BSD and people are now noticing the speed issues with diskd.

The official recommendation is currently to use AUFS with FreeBSD 10+
and diskd with older FreeBSD.

Unless you are replacing this helper with a custom-built one with
strange name this should not be configured explicitly in Squid-3.

That is a LOT of regex comparisions the proxy is having to do at least
once per-request.

The special rules you have up the top for "cgi-bin" and "\?" are also
violating HTTP safe behaviour. The default rule we provide is highly
tuned to handle caching of those responses safely without breaking old
legacy scripts.


At least most of them end with $ anchor point to prevent random URLs
matching.

Another long list of regex patterns. Notice how these are permitted to
match anywhere in the entie URL. Including domain names.

FTP traffic in particular is not guaranteed to be "big files".

A copy of the manager "mem" report would be very useful to see whats
using the memory.
 Note that it is a TSV format, so please save as .tsv file and attach.
rather than cut-n-pasting inline.
