The Delay Pools FAQ explains the different delay pool classes: http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-19.html#ss19.8 Use a class 1 delay pool instead, which sets a total limit for the pool, which is then shared equally between all connections. > and another thing is that i m not getting wot does > delay_initial_bucket_level means in fact According to the Delay Pools FAQ and the default squid.conf, it is a percentage of how full the delay pool's "bucket" (count of available bytes) is when Squid starts, is reconfigured, or receives its first connection. This allows users to start surfing immediately after Squid starts, instead of having to wait for the delay pool's bucket to fill. It appears to default to 50%. Adam
