Regarding this FAQ:

http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-11.html#ss11.17

My SQUID is running _extremely_ slowly. (About 7-10 seconds for each web
page
to load). Lately I've had to bypass it which I don't want to do, since I
have squidGuard running. I think that the above FAQ *might* answer my
question but I don't understand this directive:

"examine the Cache Manager Info ouput and look at these two lines"

How does one examine the Cache Manager? I've looked in all my *.log files,
and didn't find the two lines in question.

My kernel is 2.4.18-8 and my squid is 2.4.STABLE7.

System is a Pentium Xeon 2.6 GHz with 512 MB of RAM. Here are the top
statistics.

1:11pm up 14 days, 20:09, 1 user, load average: 0.01, 0.01, 0.00
37 processes: 35 sleeping, 2 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states: 0.2% user, 1.0% system, 0.0% nice, 98.8% idle
Mem: 513504K av, 452360K used, 61144K free, 0K shrd, 66184K
buff
Swap: 248968K av, 3760K used, 245208K free 246080K cached

Squid supports a small network of about 25 Windows XP clients. It is set up
to use 1 GB of disk space for the cache. Thanks for any help.
