I couldn't get squid_redirect to work for me. Half the pages I went to, nothing displayed. After a bit, nothing at all would work, and I saw messages in the logfile about "too many queued redirector processes". Did I miss something that needed changing?

up the number of redirectors that squid is allowed to run, If a page has lots of images more redirectors lets them be processed in parallel. I use 4 when connecting to it thru a phone line - but if I use it thru the network at work I sometimes need to up it to more than 8 to get full speed.
