[squid-users] is squid suitable for dynamic application?

[Ken DBA]

Hello,

I want to choose a reverse proxy for one of our dynamic applications.That 
application is powered by modperl, running on a host with heavy load.

Is squid suitable for this pure dynamic application? Will it improve the 
performance?

Thanks.


  

[squid-users] performance datas for Squid

[Ken DBA]

Has anyone get Squid's best performance datas on a server box with common 
hardware (ie,DELL 1950)? These datas include:

1) concurrent connections;
2) flow capacity;
3) TPS (http transaction per second).

Thanks.

 GDSF on disk, LRU on
 Memory.
 

Thanks John. for small files, why don't use GDSF on both locations?



 that's serving
 between
 15-25Mb/s of outbound traffic.
 


For this 15-25MB/s, do you mean bits or bytes? Thanks.


Ken.

 Is that per-flow, or in total?
 

I mean in total, thanks.

 Considering people have deployed Squid forward and reverse
 proxies
 that achieve much more than 150mbit/sec, even considering
 the
 shortcomings of the codebases, 

Thanks. I also hope someone has deployed the high-flow application for squid to 
give helps.

I can't help but think
 there's
 something else going on that isn't specifically
 Squids' fault. :)
 

oh.I was thinking the flow capacity is limited, maybe due to squid's IO select 
way? for example, it reads/writes socket using epoll/select/poll, not the 
threads/multi-processes. Thanks.

 Heh. The best way under unix is a hybrid of threads and
 epoll/kqueue
 w/ non-blocking socket IO.
 

Agree. But squid is not using threads for handling HTTP requests concurrently.


  

[squid-users] squid reverse-proxy for videos

[Ken DBA]

We have some web servers for videos playing (the FLV format,like youtube).
Could we deploy squid to act as a reverse-proxy for this application?
What's the recommend configure for squid? Thanks.

Ken.


  

[squid-users] improve flow capacity for Squid

[Ken DBA]

Hello,

I was just finding the flow capacity for Squid is too limited.
It's even hard to reach an upper limit of 150 MBits.

How can I improve the flow capacity for Squid in the reverse-proxy mode?
Thanks in advance.

Ken
