alright I got the point atm what i did is to decrease the cache_dir size
and restart the squid. However now im thinking about to create a single
cache directory on a single partition but duno howto do this, im pasting
the output of df and cache_dir lines from squid.conf hopes someone from
list suggest a smooth way out to single cache directory per partition.
#df -lh
/dev/sda2 16G 15G 991M 94% /cache1
/dev/sda6 15G 14G 1015M 94% /cache2
/dev/sdb1 16G 15G 1.5G 91% /cache3
/dev/sdb3 16G 15G 1.8G 89% /cache4

#vi /usr/local/squid/etc/squid.conf

cache_dir diskd /cache1/cache1 7500 32 512 Q1=72 Q2=66 Q1=72 Q2=64
cache_dir diskd /cache1/cache2 7500 32 512 Q1=72 Q2=66 Q1=72 Q2=64
cache_dir diskd /cache2/cache1 7000 32 512 Q1=72 Q2=66 Q1=72 Q2=64
cache_dir diskd /cache2/cache2 7000 32 512 Q1=72 Q2=66 Q1=72 Q2=64
cache_dir diskd /cache3/cache1 7500 32 512 Q1=72 Q2=66 Q1=72 Q2=64
cache_dir diskd /cache3/cache2 7500 32 512 Q1=72 Q2=66 Q1=72 Q2=64
cache_dir diskd /cache4/cache1 7500 32 512 Q1=72 Q2=66 Q1=72 Q2=64
cache_dir diskd /cache4/cache2 7500 32 512 Q1=72 Q2=66 Q1=72 Q2=64

store_dir_select_algorithm round-robin

1) To create a single cache direcotry / partition (as you suggested)
3) would i have to loose my stored cache?
2) Is this beneficial to use "Q1=72 Q2=66 Q1=72 Q2=64" things with diskd ?

Thanks and regards
