Re: [squid-users] Squid and slow Uploads (POST)

Hi,

the squid is directly connected to the internet , no parents.

The problem occurs when trying to connect to local resources (from the LAN
in the DMZ) and also when trying to connect to remote ressources (in the
internet).

Another customer (also connected via fiber to the same provider) does not
have these problems. Everything works fine ... and fast on a P166 with 64MB
RAM.

On this computer (PIII-450 with 256 MB RAM) this does not work. Ok, surfing
works very fine and fast ... only uploading via a web-frontend (http - post)
works very slowly.

Nearly always I get a timeout , but sometimes uploading a 100k file works,
but takes about 2 minutes.

The squid is installed directly on the main firewall/router with SuSE 8.1.

Both, the 2.5er and the 2.4er version of squid are compiled without any
options (except --prefix=/usr/local/squid). And as I said, without using
squid the connections are really fast, even uploading via http-post ...

And the same squid (compiled without any options) works fine on another box,
the only difference is that there is only 1 active network card ...
everything esle (pptp-Server, bind, ...) are also installed ...

Marco
