Re: [squid-users] Linux Memory Management

I mean does squid take advantage of the way Linux manages memory (buffering,
caching)? Because I notice that after running squid for a couple hours on a
fresh restart of the server, the performance drops down pretty low from
where it was at the beginning, as far as transfer speeds go. Why is that?
