I use box 2*PIII 450 / 256 MB RAM i have on this box two squids (one small
(0.5GB) second one large (5GB)), news serwer (2700 newsgroups), and load is
below 0.5 (exception when is executed cron.daily), currently i use 2 SETI
at HOME processes and load is near 2 - the CPU's isn't problem (in my
opinion) to large scale squid - problem is RAM/HDD/NET.....
