Re: [squid-users] "Filemap bits in use" with squidclient mgr:storedir

Actual, I have 69% free storedir-capacity (62GB)
The filemap shows:
Filemap bits in use: 1805414 of 2097152 (86%)

Is there a way to increase the file filemap-max-value to go around the
purging-steps? Is it depending on the numbers of
cache_dir-subdirectories?
