Re: [squid-users] Squid seem to be slower than our Novell BorderManger

Are you comparing the performance of a BorderManager proxy that has
been used for some time (and probably has a good-sized cache) with
a new Squid proxy (without any cache)?

Are both of these proxies on similar hardware? If not, which has
faster hardware (particularly disks)?

Have you tried using system tools like sar, procinfo, and vmstat
to see if your system is bottlenecking anywhere?
