Normally, you do not need any ./configure options to enable Rock support, including support for a stand-alone disker process. If you want to enable IpcIo explicitly, you may, but I would first check whether it was enabled without any --enable-disk-io options: > $ fgrep IpcIo config.log > configure:21195: Enabling IpcIo DiskIO module > configure:21227: IO Modules built: AIO Blocking DiskDaemon DiskThreads IpcIo Mmapped IpcIo requires shared memory support bust most modern build environments provide that. > Perhaps this process is only created in smp mode ? As the documentation tries to imply, the disker process is used when all of the statements below are true: * there are rock cache_dir(s) in squid.conf * IpcIo disk I/O module is enabled (it usually is by default) * Squid was started without the -N command line option.
