I was thinking of building several boxes with between 10TB and 20TB of SATA drives, for some squid caches. Has any used squid to cache that much data? Any idea what the upper limit is? The practical limit? -Vickers

I'd assume that the limit on cached data for Squid is not the number of bytes, but the number of cached objects? If you were to tune squid to be aggressive about caching large popular objects, then you could certainly fill a terabyte plus cache_dir, but I'm not sure how cost effective it would be
