Re: [squid-users] cache filling up too fast

Yes andrew i do mean squid -z
I do this b/c i clean the cache by removing the cache directories
completely.. as described in the squid FAQ..
i.e making a temp directory say.. "temp" mving all directories to temp...
by "mv ?? swap.state* temp"
and then rm -rf the temp directory...
How do i control this caching..
any ideas??
regards,
