Hi Robert,

This box seems to be running something a little MORE than squid - could this be a firewall perhaps?

The huge number of interrupts then seem ok for this sort of a setup -
How many Megabits/ second are you pushing through this box?!


Sorry to be a pain - I have more quesions...

Is this box really an Intel box, or does it have Opterons installed? (hostname name = sunfire)

what does
   mpstat -P ALL 5
output ?

I can believe that you are having problems, but I think that we are interpreting the output from top correctly. mpstat should show this, as we will see whether one proc
is at 100%.

Is the latency on sites in the cache? or 'new' sites?
Could this be a DNS issue? Are you running a pair of caching DNS servers on site?
or are they based at an ISP?

Are you running as a 'transperant' proxy? or have the users entered the proxy details per
hand or per proxy.pak.... ?

I would probably run aufs rather than diskd - but this should not make a real difference..
You have also only configured 3Gs of cache (3x 1G)...
You may want to try disabling the disk cache altogether and see how that works - you need to
compile with -enable-storeio=diskd,aufs,null

I would also increase my cache size to perhaps, 2G.. (How much RAM does the machine have?)


Sorry that I am not of more help,

Cheers

Andrew

What sort of network card do you have installed in your system?
