Hi Dan,
having the cache on the fileserver would be pretty much OK. Packet filtering is done primarily by a NAT router, so no requirements there. Squid neighbour detection is not required, just local access caching, with an "allow all" ACL.
Cheers,
Martin.

Hm. Then why doesnt't performance pick up again when browsing has finished? Besides, the oscillating speed I see in the graphs can't possibly be normal behaviour?
I'll run a test using SMB after the xmas break. Anyway, thanks for your input :)

In our small studio, we have a number of OSX machines that are served by a FreeNAS "appliance". We are looking at cutting down on bandwidth usage, and would like to see Squid or other caching proxy integrated in one of the next releases, perhaps with a simple web GUI to configure the most important parameters. Access control is not important for us, but caching would be good.
Cheers,
Martin.

FN 0.686B3
Using AFP to share a file dump area (mainly photographs) between OSX hosts. When transferring (copy in Finder) a large directory from a field notebook to the server, performance is as expected. If the user starts browsing the share from the same notebook while the copy is in progress, AFP performance is degraded quite severely (5-6Mbyte/s to 100kbyte-2Mbyte/s). Performance picks...
