now move to more than 1024 file descriptors for this you will have to tell
us which OS and Kernel version you are using... then we can help you..

Subject: [squid-users] Large squid cache configuration


A long time ago I found a website that went through the process of setting
up squid in a high usage environment with many concurrent users, large disk
cache, etc. I've been trying to find the webpage again but to no avail.
Does it still exist?

I used the information from the website to setup a squid proxy. I now want
to revisit the config decisions I made and compile 2.5STABLE3 on the same
machine.

Previously I used p-threads, aufs, and aio-threads=24. I have no idea now
how I chose those settings (obviously I am good at keeping documentation
;-).

Also need to recap on how to compile with more than 1024 file descriptors (I
think it is a ulimit thing).

Regards,
Ken.

PS. I tried going through the mailing list archive - but without a full text
search it just takes too long trying to guess subjects.
