Dear Sir(s) I Am a system administrator at an ISP, Squid is at the Heart of it, Caching is important to me , as is Through Put.
I have Been trying for months now , fiddiling with /Proc anyway I can, and with the squid.conf, also with the Limits.conf I finaly was able to reach a throughput of 80Mb which is not even close to what I really need, One of the Server's Reached 120Mb, but i wasnt able to know why!!!. I tried fiddiling with Squid's Source code to remove any un-needed stuff, but it was too complicated for my programming knowldge. I hope you can help me with some of the questions I have, for I am desprate at this time to find a decent answer, The Web didnt really give me a stright answer. Please note that i Have an ACL RegEx of almost 2000 lines 1 : What are the main configuration parameters that have a major effect on through put ( in sysctl.conf , squid.conf , limits.conf and /proc ) 2 : I am thinking of using OpenSSI to use its Load Levelling functionallity , But I am not sure that Squid will benift from it, Will it increase the Thoughput of my Squid or limit it ? 3 : I am looking for a patch that can Write the Access Log Directlly to Oracle or Mysql , unlike squid2Mysql , I dont want it to read the file Access.log and then write it, I need squid to write it to the DB directlly, Is that even possible ? 4 : Any way to speed up anything with Squid . I would really appreciate it. I wait for any answers. Thanks in advance.
