Hi, Can anybody help me to confirm my understanding of the memory usage vs the persistent cache capacity? Below my understanding: According to http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidMemory: 1- We need 14 MB of memory per 1 GB on disk for 64-bit Squid.The wiki is there since I know squid (ie. i'm very old now). Is this information still valid? 2- Is this assumption based on the default value of 13 KB for *store_avg_object_size*? 3- If answers to questions above are both YES, can we deduce that we need *182* bytes in memory per object in the persistent cache on 64x system? [*182* = (14 * 1024 * 1024) / (1024 * 1024 / store_avg_object_size)] 4- Today the *store_avg_object_size* should be really greater than 13 KB. The mean object size I can see on my own cache is about 100 KB. Can anybody refer me to a website where I can find fresh information? 5- If I'm completely on a wrong way, can anybody help me to find a formula that can help me to deduce the required RAM for a given HDD capacity (and vice versa).
