Will the users require authentication? Depending on what authentication is active, you'd probably want to increase the minimum amount of auth helpers to satisfy the requests. That said, you really haven't given enough information about your specific use. -----Original Message----- From: squid-users <squid-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> On Behalf Of Periko Support Sent: Monday, March 20, 2023 12:38 PM To: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [EXTERNAL] FreeBSD 12 thousands connections CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization.

The server is a Supermicro Intel 8 cores with 64GB RAM, SSD disk, I will not enable caching. The switches are 1GB HP. Any recommendations for this deployment that could help tuning my FreeBSD 12.3 box to take into consideration? Thanks all for your time!!! _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
