Just read in http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/squid/chapter/ch08.pdf that you
should never use RAID for squid cache directories because it always degrades
filesystem performance for squid.

I assumed, it is a matter of ACL number. I can have 10 ACLs or 1 ACL in

But unfortunately since this change, sibling does not work anymore. No

our squid has to handle more than 100.000 IP adresses.
Is it more efficient to fill up subnets or doesn't it matter.
E.g. 250 IPs of an C-IP Range have to have proxy access, but I can also
allow all 255. Is there a difference in performance, when I give squid

Your first ACL allow full access from local network (192.168.1.0/24) if
your user arre inthis range squid will never go furher on the ACL check.
Move the first line at the end. So squid will proceed your deny first.
