Re: [squid-users] 4 squid with multiple cache_dir and cache_peer

To simplify the setup, you should use multicast parents,
you can achive that by configure the cache_peers with this line.

cache_peer 230.0.0.4 multicast 3128 3130

remember to create a route for multicast, since in linux it's not
created by default.

Also, you've probably better with separate disks instead a large
RAID0, since you can increase performance, and avoid the cost of the
stripping,

Hope this helps.
