Your second squid.conf file will have to specify a different cache_dir, log
files, and pid file, in addition to the port. It's probably better to
figure out the root cause of the problem.
What kind of hardware is squid running on? What OS?
How does the memory usage look when squid gets slow? How about CPU?
What are your definitions of "few users"? How many accesses per second your
cache is serving?
To give suggestions on improving performance, first we need to know where
you are at.

Hi,
Squid proxy runs good for few users however the moment no. of users
increase its performance goes down.There is no issue of bandwidth as
the fallback option "cacheflow" works perfect.
Tried to run multiple instance of squid with:
1) different config file ...squid1.conf
2) Seperate http_port 8081 in squid1.conf and 8080 in squid.conf
after running #./squid -f squid1.conf
it gives foowing message:::
Squid already running! Process id 2383
Any suggestion to improve the squid performance...?
Cheer,
Rahul Sinha
