Re: [squid-users] Information flodded in logfiles

Dear sandiphw,

The best option would be to work on the request or misbehaving
application from http://ab-desktop, log-rotation on the squid proxy
works best for me and if you can, please create a syslog server, this
will assist you in ensuring that logs are removed from the production
server and reduce downtime on the proxy server. One more thing that
works best for me is Munin (monitoring), I check it every time for my
servers and it works best especially when it comes to identifying disk
space,CPU usage etc.
