# Uncomment and adjust the following to add a disk cache directory.
#cache_dir ufs /usr/local/squid/var/cache 100 16 256

	Usage:

	cache_dir Type Directory-Name Fs-specific-data [options]

	You can specify multiple cache_dir lines to spread the
	cache among different disk partitions.

	Type specifies the kind of storage system to use. Only "ufs"
	is built by default. To enable any of the other storage systems
	see the --enable-storeio configure option.

	'Directory' is a top-level directory where cache swap
	files will be stored.  If you want to use an entire disk
	for caching, this can be the mount-point directory.
	The directory must exist and be writable by the Squid
	process.  Squid will NOT create this directory for you.

	The ufs store type:

	"ufs" is the old well-known Squid storage format that has always
	been there.

	cache_dir ufs Directory-Name Mbytes L1 L2 [options]

	'Mbytes' is the amount of disk space (MB) to use under this
	directory.  The default is 100 MB.  Change this to suit your
	configuration.  Do NOT put the size of your disk drive here.
	Instead, if you want Squid to use the entire disk drive,
	subtract 20% and use that value.

	'L1' is the number of first-level subdirectories which
	will be created under the 'Directory'.  The default is 16.

	'L2' is the number of second-level subdirectories which
	will be created under each first-level directory.  The default
	is 256.

	The aufs store type:

	"aufs" uses the same storage format as "ufs", utilizing
	POSIX-threads to avoid blocking the main Squid process on
	disk-I/O. This was formerly known in Squid as async-io.

	cache_dir aufs Directory-Name Mbytes L1 L2 [options]

	see argument descriptions under ufs above

	The diskd store type:

	"diskd" uses the same storage format as "ufs", utilizing a
	separate process to avoid blocking the main Squid process on
	disk-I/O.

	cache_dir diskd Directory-Name Mbytes L1 L2 [options] [Q1=n] [Q2=n]

	see argument descriptions under ufs above

	Q1 specifies the number of unacknowledged I/O requests when Squid
	stops opening new files. If this many messages are in the queues,
	Squid won't open new files. Default is 64

	Q2 specifies the number of unacknowledged messages when Squid
	starts blocking.  If this many messages are in the queues,
	Squid blocks until it receives some replies. Default is 72

	When Q1 < Q2 (the default), the cache directory is optimized
	for lower response time at the expense of a decrease in hit
	ratio.  If Q1 > Q2, the cache directory is optimized for
	higher hit ratio at the expense of an increase in response
	time.

	The coss store type:

	NP: COSS filesystem in Squid-3 has been deemed too unstable for
	    production use and has thus been removed from this release.
	    We hope that it can be made usable again soon.

	block-size=n defines the "block size" for COSS cache_dir's.
	Squid uses file numbers as block numbers.  Since file numbers
	are limited to 24 bits, the block size determines the maximum
	size of the COSS partition.  The default is 512 bytes, which
	leads to a maximum cache_dir size of 512<<24, or 8 GB.  Note
	you should not change the coss block size after Squid
	has written some objects to the cache_dir.

	The coss file store has changed from 2.5. Now it uses a file
	called 'stripe' in the directory names in the config - and
	this will be created by squid -z.

	Common options:

	no-store, no new objects should be stored to this cache_dir

	max-size=n, refers to the max object size in bytes this cache_dir
	supports.  It is used to select the cache_dir to store the object.
	Note: To make optimal use of the max-size limits you should order
	the cache_dir lines with the smallest max-size value first and the
	ones with no max-size specification last.

	Note for coss, max-size must be less than COSS_MEMBUF_SZ,
	which can be changed with the --with-coss-membuf-size=N configure
	option.
