It looks like you know more about it than I, however I am wondering if
the pci bus on your motherboard can keep up. Or, if the NIC cards are
$1.50 items, they may be the culprit. Does the board really support the
Ultra100 drives? My memories of the PII days are a bit hazy.

I suppose it would be fun running a VW in an F1 circuit...

Take care,

Happy New Year everyone!
I have setup my new customise machine to run squid.
I have been running quid over 2 year now.
For the first time, I was able to stress test my box to see how much
request
the squid box can handle.
My machine is an IBM Netfinity 3000 (400MHz PII, 768MB Memory, 2 NIC
cards,
2 15GB Ultra100 drive partition 4 time reiserfs.)
I have setup bridging and the diverter  on my system running 2.4.20
Using Polygraph default simple.pg file with req=0.4 and robots=150+, I
loses
connection to the box. In other words, my network functionality on my
box
stops.
When it does, restarting the network does not bring it up.
I also notice that active connections remain in the system until I
restart
the system.
I have tune my system which took me from 80req/sec to 120 semi stable
box.
How can I stop this problem since it is not squid.
I have follow all tweaks offer by squid and also squid running on linux.
I will send my squid.conf and my sysctl file tomorrow.
Thank you very much.
Best regards
