Does squid throttling work?

[crni]

Well I set filters for throttling and I set throtlle speed , but nothing seams to be hapening, it allways uses my full bandwidth.
My shaping works really fine, but i wanted to throttle certain type of files even further by fixed amount but it doesen't seam to be working, if there is some special kind of procedure of setting this up, could you please share it here :).

Thanks.

Please take a screen shot of the Squid settings screen and also show your /usr/local/etc/squid.conf file

I'm sorry but when i try to load file "/usr/local/etc/squid.conf" form edit in web interface i get file not found. :(

[sullrich]

Woops, that is suppsoed to be /usr/local/etc/squid/squid.conf

Incidentally, the delay pools and "throttling" settings for squid are really notoriously hard to test unless you know what you're doing and how squid works.  I recommend taking a look at the squid mailing list for some recommendations on the best ways to ensure that this stuff is working for you because there's a lot of really weird entropy that can come into play.

Here is my sqid config, in gui I set it to 30 kilovayts per sec, but i dont see it anyware in config file.

Strange, I do:

delay_parameters 1 -1/10485760 30720/10485760

Damn pwned. :)

But that still doesent change the fact that there is no throttling. :D

[Guest]

Have you read any of the threads in the squid mailing list about throttling and delay_pools?  What exactly are you using to determine that they aren't working?

[crni]

Been busy last couple of days, gonna check that out.
