Re: [squid-users] large squid setups

Hmm, glancing at one of my proxy's cachemgr pages, I see:

        Request Hit Ratios: 5min: 45.2%, 60min: 44.8%
        Byte Hit Ratios: 5min: 13.4%, 60min: 16.6%
        Request Memory Hit Ratios: 5min: 8.2%, 60min: 9.5%
        Request Disk Hit Ratios: 5min: 34.8%, 60min: 35.7%
        CPU Usage: 42.13%
        CPU Usage, 5 minute avg: 79.71%
        CPU Usage, 60 minute avg: 75.82%
        Total space in arena: 346722 KB
        Maximum number of file descriptors: 4096
        Largest file desc currently in use: 715
        Number of file desc currently in use: 672
        Number of clients accessing cache: 2145
        HTTP requests per minute: 2308.6

Here's this machine's in-depth description:
2x1.0g P3's
1.0g RAM
2x 16.9g mirrored boot drives
3x 16.9g cache drives (41.4Gb to squid)
2x 100mbit nics (1 client-side, 1 internet side)
Redhat 7.1 (2.2.19 kernel)
Squid 2.4. Stable 2 from RPMs

The cachedir's (3 of them) are running diskd right now (would probably
be better w/ aufs.) The cache_mem is set at 64mb. And reference_age is
1 week.

Hope this helps. Oh yeah, and YMMV.
