Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] squid - Disable on-disk Cache?

[Dave <gh...@gm...>]

Yeah, with 500 people going through it however, that cache_swap_log
continues to grow, just under 1k/sec.  Afterhours it doesn't gain much at
all.  So far I've not seen it stop, just gain space.  The squid -k rotate is
what I used to do, but now I'm using squidGuard with a huge blacklist
service ( http://urlblacklist.com/ ) so with 5 child processes it takes
about a minute of downtime for it to be ready to roll again.  For right now,
this hasn't been a big issue, as it's an HA cluster, and I can just rebuild
it on the secondary node, and failover to it.
