Re: file descriptors for squid using linux 2.2.1

irfan,

this is the new /proc/ filesystem in my box.

cache:/proc/sys/fs# ls
binfmt_misc/ dquot-max file-max inode-max inode-state super-nr
dentry-state dquot-nr file-nr inode-nr super-max
cache:/proc/sys/fs# cat file-max
4096
cache:/proc/sys/fs# cat inode-max
8192
cache:/proc/sys/fs#

and still i get a 256 value for fds on squid

-marlon

ps. anyone running squid on the new 2.2.x linux kernels?
