Re: AW: [squid-users] Squid File Descriptor Size

hey guys....

i enabled async-io using the aufs file system.. it had
earlier warned of possible system instability, and it
did just that.. 30 seconds after i started squid in
async-io mode, it crashed.. giving a segmentation
fault.. so i reverted to the ufs file system...

is it possible to have async-io running a little more
stable..?..
