[squid-users] Max Object Size and Download Speeds

Hi,

When setting Max Object size to it's default 4MB, I get good browsing
and download speeds (large files).
When I increase the Size to say 50MB (so that more BIG files gets
cached), I noticed that the download speeds becomes slower. (~ 1/2)

Is there a correlation to the Max Object size to the file-size? or do
you guys think it's only due to the Speed of the Hardware?
BTW, this is a white box server on a 7200 RPM IDE disk serving ~300
users.
