Using diskd shows the same effects as aufs: a maximum of about 210
kByte/s throughput on clients as well as the server itself. No
difference between 2.4STABLE7 und 2.5STABLE1.

I recompiled Squid 2.5STABLE1 with --disable-poll. Surprise: Throughput
doubled (now about 400 kByte/s) for diskd and aufs while ufs still
delivers very high (and expected) performance.

Another surprise: I let two wget request the same URI (one wget on the
Squid Cache server system, one on a network client). While both are
running throughput rises to 1.3 MByte/s (diskd) resp. 6.0 MByte/s
(aufs). Maybe there is a bug in the thread handling in Squid or glibc
(I'm using 2.2.5)?

Kind regards,
