capacity planning

Hello All,

       We are planning to make a tool to give capacity planning to SQUID.

        Objective of tool:

        1. Based on number of users, hardware + squid configuration will be suggested.
        2. Based on hardware configuration ( HDD, RAM, CPU),
                    1. number of users can be serviced from squid
                    2. updation needed on hardware to reach required users count

        Using polygraph benchmark tool, we are getting number of req / sec satisfaction on squid cache server ( 2.5, 3.0 ). We are
preparing metrics for designed hardware set ( CPU, HDD, RAM).

        I hope some of us may be done benchmarking on squid-2.5, 3.0 in different hardware setups. So that, We are need in of
prepared req / sec rate satisfaction, hardware configuration, squid configuration tunning, linux tunning details to make metrics.

        Based on calculated metrics, We are planning to make GUI to get capacity planning.

thanks
muthukumar.
