What would be considered a large disk cache?
If I have a cache of 100Gb, would it be considered a large disk cache?
Yes, to squid anything over 20GB is 'large', though 'huge' is in the TB
ranges.
The default garbage collection boundaries are very heavy-handed and may
cause periodic slowness while tens or hundreds of MB in small KB files
are erased.
Is there a number (approximatively) of a ideal size per HD (SAS 10000 RPM)?
Squid can handle up to 63 cache_dir. Each one ideally on exactly one
unique HDD / 'spindle'.
IIRC Henrik last spoke of 3 HDD being optimum for access vs data
retention. With minimal gains going to more. I'm not sure if thats changed.
A cache of 100Gb (autofs) would reside in 1, 2 or 3 HD? or more?
Thanks
