Re: Squid 32-bit (2.7.2) much faster than Squid 64-bit (3.5.11)

[Mike <mcsnv96@xxxxxxx>]

I believe one possible issue is here:
max_filedescriptors 3200
Need to have squid and the OS working together, adding it to squid without the proper setting in the OS causes delays and slow performance. I would suggest commenting this out and restarting the squid service to see if that helps.

I've found that entry does not work well in Windows, but it should in linux. Also with my company we moved away from Win Server because of similar and other unrelated issues, so now are linux only (except for one out of hundreds of servers).

Hello,

 

Just following up on my slow 3.5.11 Squid server.  I loaded the 32-bit 2.7.2 version on the same box and it’s so much faster for me. Its 4 to 5 times faster for me on the same machine. Please any help appreciated. Amos, I think I cleaned up my 3.5.11 squid.conf properly. I think my 2.7.2 squid.conf needs work.

See below Startup Cache logs from both 3.5.11 and 2.7.2 and also the squid.conf files from 3.5.11 and 2.7.2.

 

Thank You,

Patrick
