no. >i'd like to assign the 4 varnishes running on this box 3 GB each and >leave 4GB for linux disk/nfs cache Why are you running multiple varnishes on the same box ? >- what effect has the size of the VARNISH_STORAGE_SIZE? That sets the size of the file varnish maps for storage, and in a sort of way limits the amount of memory varnish can use, but also severely limits your hit-rate when it runs full. >is this cache persistent? when are objects moved from memory to disk? No. Whenever the kernel VM subsystem decide it should happen. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 [EMAIL PROTECTED] | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence. _______________________________________________ varnish-dev mailing list varnish-dev@projects.linpro.no http://projects.linpro.no/mailman/listinfo/varnish-dev
