Squid on receiving requests sends them to the ICAP REQMOD service, and waits for its response, then sends the ICAP REQMOD result to the origin server, and waits for its response, then sends that to the ICAP RESPMOD service, and waits for its response, then sends that to the client. So... What is the ICAP service and the origin server doing? <SC> ICAP Service inspects the data that passes through it, and does selective filtering based on user policies. There are two icap services that handles two different service providers. Would having two icap services cause any delay. Does Squid send data to a icap service if the icap service has returned 204 in the preview handler? The Origin server is S3 or Box. We did tests without Squid in between, and the success ratio is high. We are trying to isolate this on a component basis, but the tcp dump shows that the squid did not respond at the TCP level. We were wondering if this is because Squid is busy. > - Proxy does not acknowledge. What type of "acknowledge" are you expecting here?

Can anyone guide me on how to optimize Squid for the above scenario? Are there any performance parameters that I can tweak so Squid handles this correctly? > Amos _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
