greetings
i have squid running as a transparent proxy with squidguard as a content filter. I recently increased the filter list size and my machine is choking when i rotate the logs.
i have a cron job execute squid -k rotate at night. the CPU pegs out at 100% and it takes for ever for squidguard to process the blacklists.
without intervention the machine will choke itself to death and restart.
with intervention i have been able to flush my IPFW redirect, load squid, wait 20 minutes until the CPU is done processing the the blacklist then add the redirect statements back in. the whole process takes about 30 minutes start to finish.
is there a cleaner way to rotate? the 30 min down time seems too long.
running squid-2.5 Stable6 & squidguard 1.2
