thanks, henrik, your answers helped a lot. but still some points unclear to
me:

if i look into the cache-manager(btw: great tool): under "general runtime
information" there are some informations about the cache:
a) hit rate, memory hit rate, disk hit rate.
i would think that hit rate = memory + disk hit rate, but it isn't. why
not?
what is the memory hit rate? is it the hit rate of the hot objects hold by
squid (via cache_mem) or the hit rate of the operating system???

b) what is the storage mem size??? is it the used amount of memory specified
by cache_mem in squid.conf???

c) what is the difference between in-memory and in- transit objects? (in
transit objects are objects just requested, are in-memory objects the hot
objects???)

thx in advance,
alp
