hmm...
<HTTP requests per minute:           55174.3>
that means an average of 919,57 requests per second.
i think this is a bit too optimistic for stress-testing squid :o).
that must be a hellraising machine, then...
now seriously, i never heard of any <normal> squid box
that could stand >900 requests per second.
you can find some measurements (IRCache cache-off)
at:
http://www.measurement-factory.com/results/public/cacheoff/N03/report.by-meas.html
i never got squid running stable on a 1gb/p3-866 machine
with more than 400 req/second.

Hi guys,
squid still has a lot of users right now.. the IO is tremendous.. very
high..
Even though it's very select group of files that are accessed.. this is
very weird as the box has 1gb of ram,
and should be able to keep the entire set of files accessed in ram.. the
AIO processes I have set for max of 350 procs..
it now again hits a queue congestion - seemingly because of the disk-io not
keeping up..
why is squid not keeping the objects in the memory? :-(

It is a myth that people resist change. People resist what other
people make them do, not what they themselves choose to do...
That's why companies that innovate successfully year after year
seek their peopl's ideas, let them initiate new projects and
encourage more experiments.            -- Rosabeth Moss Kanter
