[squid-users] Hard Drive Latency

Can Squid be setup so that under heavy load if due to hard drive access/seek
time it cannot keep up with requests and object writes it stops caching for
a little while? I am thinking if I have a single hard drive with ~8ms seek
and at peak times I receive requests every 3ms I am going to see some poor
performance on http. I know the ideal solution is to add more drives.
