We have 110Mbps of HTTP network traffic (the actual bandwidth is round 250Mbps, but I'm talking about HTTP only). But aufs doesn't seem to behave that well. I have it with XFS mounted with noatime. I ran "squid -z" on the aufs cache_dir to see if aufs behaves better with less objects. It does, but I still get quite a lot of these: 2010/08/18 21:22:20| squidaio_queue_request: WARNING - Disk I/O overloading 2010/08/18 21:22:35| squidaio_queue_request: WARNING - Disk I/O overloading 2010/08/18 21:22:35| squidaio_queue_request: Queue Length: current=533, high=777, low=321, duration=20 2010/08/18 21:22:50| squidaio_queue_request: WARNING - Disk I/O overloading 2010/08/18 21:22:50| squidaio_queue_request: Queue Length: current=669, high=777, low=321, duration=35 2010/08/18 21:23:05| squidaio_queue_request: WARNING - Disk I/O overloading 2010/08/18 21:23:05| squidaio_queue_request: Queue Length: current=422, high=777, low=321, duration=50 2010/08/18 21:23:22| squidaio_queue_request: WARNING - Disk I/O overloading 2010/08/18 21:41:46| squidaio_queue_request: WARNING - Queue congestion So, duration keeps growing....so the problem will occur again. Now, it seems that COSS behaves very nicely. I'd like to know if I can adjust the max-size option of coss, with something like "--with-coss-membuf-size" ? Or is really hard-coded? I use the aufs cache_dir to do youtube and windowsupdate caches. So if I could increase max-size of the coss cache_dirs to around 100MB, I could leave the aufs cache_dir to windowsupdate fles only (which are around 300MB+). Is it possible? Thanks, - Robert
