1000 requests/sec is a lot to ask of Squid - mainly because it is not
multi-threaded. I would recommend the following:
- Change your cache_dir type to something other than the default ufs -
use aufs for Linux and diskd for BSD. If you're using something else,
ask the list for advice.
- Split your cache among several SCSI disks, and make sure those disks
are fast (15k U160 or faster). Forget about any kind of RAID with
these disks.
- Distribute the load - build multiple Squid servers in a cache
heirarchy
