Re: [squid-users] Optimize / Performance / Dimensioning of a proxysquid

I do not understand any more Henrik...
I read in a French document of a University which the parameter cache_mem was
in relation to the number of GB of Cache.

If 1 Gb Cache => cache_mem 16 mo
If 2 Gb Cache => cache_mem 32 mo
...

It's false ???????.
