Hi,
I recently switched to LFUDA as a replacement policy, and for the
interested, my byte-hit ratio rose by a factor of approximately 5%...my
hit ratio stayed steady at around 52%.
As for the memory however, I was using 100MB of cache_mem on a 512MB
system, and I was surprised to see my box swapping at 26MB!!! This never
happened before using simple LRU and such a large cache_mem.
Here are my mem stats after 7 days of uptime:
Memory usage for squid via mallinfo():
Total space in arena: 437069 KB
Ordinary blocks: 432612 KB 97547 blks
Small blocks: 0 KB 0 blks
Holding blocks: 18220 KB 8 blks
Free Small blocks: 0 KB
Free Ordinary blocks: 4457 KB
Total in use: 450832 KB 103%
Total free: 4457 KB 1%
Memory accounted for:
Total accounted: 305529 KB
Why the large difference between the total in use vs the accounted? Any
ideas? Box is a Intel PIII 500Mhz Linux 2.2.15, 36GB cache partitions
running Version 2.3.STABLE2. Compiled using --enable-dlmalloc.
Thanks in advance,
Chris
