[squid-users] Ask about delay pool?

2012-06-25 Thread Ibrahim Lubis 
Hi,

How to limit bandwith user from subnet example 10.10.10.0/24 to maximal use of 
20Mbit, and limit max use per client in that subnet to 1024 Kbit using delay 
pools.

I read somewhere delay_pools is deprecated, is this true? 
If i activate zph does it disable delay pool? 

Thx

See http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/delay_parameters/

No. Delay pools is just a bit old with some issues due to its design 
(very limited IPv6 support, and strange effects when the TCP buffers are 
bloated[1]).

But it is NOT deprecated.

No, both will limit the traffic to no more than their own rate. Delay 
pools limits read() operations from upstream network servers, ZPH/QoS 
flows limit delivery to the client according to whatever your external 
QoS management decides.
 NP: Squid-3.1+ no longer buffers large amounts of data from the server 
to drip-feed clients.
