To use the memory (efficiently), you'll want 64 bit OS. Then you'll have to choose 32 or 64-bit squid, and from reading this list I think I'd play it safe and build it as 32-bit. (You being a fc6 user might have other priorities :-) Even if the squid-process itself then can't use more than 2 GB, you'll still have a huge page buffer from the OS to help it. -jf
