Squid Cache Directory
Hi,

I have redhat linux 9 and squid installed on it. I would like to know which (ufs, diskd, async) format I should use in my squid setup for the squid directory.

Also if possible can anyone tell me which is the best.


Regards,
Raja

Hi,

Well, as always, it depends on what you're going to do and what you pretend from the cache... if your "best" means speed, then I would choose async I/O...
UFS is the "normal" filesystem and diskd is a squid subsystem, which I don't think will be faster than async I/O... but you can always make some benchmark tests... keep in mind that the cache will have a lot of files, mainly small ones !
