Can Squid be setup so that under heavy load if due to hard drive access/seek time it cannot keep up with requests and object writes it stops caching for a little while? I am thinking if I have a single hard drive with ~8ms seek and at peak times I receive requests every 3ms I am going to see some poor performance on http. I know the ideal solution is to add more drives.
The "aufs" cache_dir type automatically tries to do this when the harddrive I/O load is too high.
