[squid-users] Caching of Big objects (bigger than memory limit)

Hi List,

From my understanding, Squid will add an object into memory, then page it
out to disk, as the memory limit get's full. (Barring another 1000 checks
that I didn't mention :) )

My question is, what will happen with an object that is bigger than
maximum_object_size_in_memory ?

Here is my setup:

maximum_object_size_in_memory 16 MB
maximum_object_size 1 GB

cache_mem is 512MB

If I request a cachable object of 30meg, what will happen to it ?

Thanks,

Pieter
