Re: squid 4.1 default queue-size should consider concurrency

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



2*NCONC*NCHILD will possibly lead to too high value as a default and the busy-ness will never be logged.

My proposal of higher of (2*NCONC) and (2*NCHILD) would mean that load is now regularly high enough that atleast 2 more children are needed.

We can start with that and then find a better formula.

The original intention of this default value is have a queue that is twice the size of the messages being processed, so for helpers with concurrency=NCONC and num_children=NCHILD it makes a lot of sense to set the default queue length to 2*NCONC*NCHILD. I do not understand that "compatibility" with doing the wrong calculation is a good thing.

Hello,

In squid 4.1 new option "queue-size" was introduced.

In most (or all) cases default "queue-size" is set to children-max*2.

But I believe it should be higher of (children-max*2) OR (concurrency*2)

Or it can be some better formula but the point I am trying to make is
that, "concurrency" should be taken in to account for calculating
default value of "queue-size".

Please consider.

FYI; When we add a directive or option to control some behaviour that
already happens the default is usually set to the value all existing
Squid are using so nobody gets an unexpected surprise with upgrade.

That can change later once more people have experimented to find what a
better value actually is.

Cheers
