Hmmm. I am a bit confused. Docs say:

# cache_dir Type Directory-Name Fs-specific-data [options]
#
# "ufs" is the old well-known Squid storage format
# ==================================================================
# cache_dir ufs Directory-Name Mbytes L1 L2 [options]
# 'Mbytes' is the amount of disk space to use
# 'Level-1' is the number of first-level subdirectories
# 'Level-2' is the number of second-level subdirectories

You say that L2 is used as a max number of objects per level2 directory.

Does this mean that L2 parameter specify both number of level2 dirs and
max number of objects per level2 directory? Or what?
