The latter is limited by 16777216 objects (a hard-coded limit). > What we need is to deploy 8 TB per server, Divide 8 TB by your average disk-cached object size, then divide by 16777216 to find out the minimum number of cache_dirs per server. For example, with 13KB average disk-cached object size, caching 8 TB on disk requires 40 cache_dirs (8 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024 / 13 / 16777216). See also: store_avg_object_size > cache_dir aufs /cache 5242880 16 256 With default store_avg_object_size of 13KB, the above yields 412977624 objects, which is x24 more than the 16777216 limit. I do not remember if Squid has a hard-coded maximum for the number of cache_dirs. However, even if Squid does not, please note that several algorithms iterate through all cache_dirs. Each iteration is relatively fast (e.g., a complex hash lookup), but having lots of cache_dirs may slow your Squid down because of these linear searches. Alex. P.S. If you move to SMP Squid, please note that you should not continue to use aufs cache_dirs. _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
