Thank you - I found the missing part. Disk type "null" also requires a directory - even with the config file stating: # The null store type: # # no options are allowed or required Georg

So it's not possible to just tell squid to store the cache items in ram without using a ramdisk? Yes. Squid has it's own built-in ramdisk equivalent for memory caching the most popular or recent objects. It's size is defined by the cache_mem setting which may be used with or without the disk caching. To run diskless: * 3.0 and numerically lower there is a "null" disk type to set on cache_dir line and override the default 100MB on-disk cache. * 3.1+ have no such default on-disk so removing all cache_dir lines is the same end result.

It is safe to ignore the cache.log warning about cache_mem being larger than the disk. Regards Henrik

[squid-users] WARNING cache_mem is larger than total disk cache space!
Hello, I've tried to set the disc cache smaller than memory size - because I'm observing reduced performance with too much disc cache. So now, I ask myself - if it would be a good idea to disable the whole disk cache thing and only use RAM? And if so - how will I do it - with squid 3.0 there are always warnings about to little disc cache. Georg

This message says that yout cache_mem setting is larger than the sum of your configured cache_dir directories. Note: there is usually no reason to touch the cache_mem setting from it's default of 8MB unless in very specific conditions usually only seen in reverse proxies where Squid is acting as an accelerator infront of one (or maybe a handful) web servers.

They have completely different meaning. the cache_mem means how much of memory will be user by squid to cache objects. cache_swap means how much disk space will be used for the same reason. You can have system swap turned off (if you have enough of RAM) and have big partition for cache_swap, better would be said, for squid cache. (I have 30GB) if you have 30 GB partition od disk free for using with squid, you can use it as cache_swap without need for 30GB swap partition. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.

[squid-users] WARNING cache_mem is larger than total disk cache space-help!
Hi, I installed Squid on OpenBSD 3.5 to use as a Proxy between the Internet and LAN. I am able to connect to the internet and view webpages from the internet but when I start squid initially the following error shows up. "WARNING cache_mem is larger than total disk cache space!" The total disk cache space on my system is 600Mb. ie. I have a 600 MB Swap partition. How can I rectify this problem? There are at presently 12 LAN users at present and it will grow to 35 soon. They use internet very heavily! How should I configure the cache memory? I mean could you please recommend the Optimum Cache Size? If necessarry I am willing to increase the total disk cache space. ie. I'll repartition Swap. I need speed and Optimum Perfomance. Below is relevant portion of my squid.conf Posted so you can have a look. I configured by reading the pdf provied from the squid website. Well in the way I understood it. Please look into this problem and help me. Thankyou Somuch, warm regards Siju # OPTIONS WHICH AFFECT THE CACHE SIZE cache_mem 300 MB cache_swap_low 90 cache_swap_high 95 maximum_object_size 4096 KB minimum_object_size 0 KB maximum_object_size_in_memory 8 KB memory_replacement_policy lru
