Hello,

I'm being reading the wiki and the mailing list to know, which is the
best filesystem to use, for now I have chose ext3 based on comments on
the list, also, I have passed the nodev,nosuid,noexec,noatime flags to
fstab in order to get a security and faster performance.

Hi Matias,
I'd personally recommend against ext3, and point you towards reiserfs.
ext3 is horribly slow for many small files being read/written at the
same time. I'd also recommend maximizing your disk throughput, by
splitting the raid, and having a cache-dir on each disk; though of
course, you'll loose redundancy in the event of a disk failure.
I wrote a howto that revolves around maximizing squid performance, take
a look at it, you may find it helpful:
