All,
My machine (Pentium III with 256 MB RAM and 20 GB of HDD) run Squid 2.5S4 +
RH 9 (kernel 2.4.22).
System run very good until I added a text file (url_regex) blocking sites.
The file contain around 70.000 lines of blocked urls. The performance
instantly drop after I run the Squid.
I found that system very aggressively using swap in HDD. Squid used memory
up to 388 MB that much more than physical RAM I have. I suspect that there
is no room of physical RAM for kernel and driver that cause performance
drop.
My other machine run Squid 2.4S7 with RH 6.2 run very well even I put the
same file to block sites. I set vm.freepages to reserve physical RAM for
kernel and driver. Unfortunately, I cannot find it in kernel 2.4.x.
Would you tell me how I can reserve RAM for kernel and driver? Is it another
way (instead vm.freepages) to do it?
Your answer is very appreciated and waited for.
Thx & Rgds,
Awie
