Hi!
I’ve recently stumbled across all the information that is returned from
the squid cache manager. Now after analysing the request count data a
bit on the cache manager information responses I noticed that they do
not match up with the amount of logs in access.log. There might be 300
requests/s (as shown by the cache manager by comparing the values and
calculating the average per second) and only 100 access.log entries in
the somewhat similar time (given a few seconds to make sure it was
written).
I am wondering: what causes that or rather how do I have to interpret
those different numbers? Which of those can I trust?
Which manager report are you looking at?
Some reports show average across the entire Squid lifetime across all
workers.
I am aware that a CONNECT only shows up once and requests routed through
the tunnel do not show up in access.log, however I thought that you can
not see single requests on squids side as it is encrypted and thus not
count it.
That is normally correct, unless you are decrypting the traffic. In
which case the decrypted requests and several transactions used to do
the decryption are logged (and counted).
