Re: [squid-users] Re: Squid in no cache mode

Hi,
   Thanks for the reply.
   The h/w and system config is as follows :-
    X86 Intel Processor : > 1.7Ghx
    Memory : 256 MB DDR RAM
    Swap : 512 MB
    800 MHz FSB
    HDD : 40GB
    RedHat Linux 8, Kernel : 2.4.18-14
    Squid: 2.5.STABLE5 with redirector
    Configure options : --enable-storeio=null
--enable-linux-netfilter
    We have a web server with many applications, an
email client besides squid running on the system. The
redirector communicates with a remote server/ local
cache and determines the category of the url, which in
turn is checked with a local database bfr the response
is returned back to squid. After analysing many
tests's results we have come to the conclusion that
the redirector is consuming around 16% of the total
response time. I am unable to attach the squid.conf
file. The main options that I have changed are as
follows :-
   cache_dir null /usr/local/squid/var
   redirect_program
/usr/local/proj/cfilter/cfserver/cf_client
   redirect_children 5
   redirect_rewrites_host_header off
   half_closed_clients off
   httpd_accel_host virtual
   httpd_accel_port 80
   httpd_accel_with_proxy on
   httpd_accel_uses_host_header on
   logfile_rotate 0
   

   Kindly suggest some measures to improve the
performance. Thanks for your time.
    Regards and TIA,
       Deepa
