Hi, I use 64-bit machine, HP DL380 G7. I thought that it should be better to use tmpfs (part of the memory). After reboot it is clean and empty, squid creates directories again automaticaly. So you recommend use a few of disk capacity and set caching to memory only ? Thanks J.K.

I think using only memory cache would be much more efficient (unless you are running 32-bit squid). Yes, consider the purpose of why a disk cache is better than RAM cache: objects are not erased when Squid or the system restarts. ==> tmpfs data is erased when Squid or the system restarts. So why bother? All you gain from tmpfs is a drop in speed accessing the data, from RAM speeds down to the Disk speeds. Whether it is SSD or HDD that is slower than RAM. Amos
