    I have a 80GB disk in my pfsense 1.2 firewall and after about 4 months of usage with squid I've got a 75 % filled disk.

    I left all the squid settings alone and didn't change the cache/log sizes.

    Can somebody tell me how I can quickly see where all the data is being stored and what is actually taking up all the space?

    I have no unix/freebsd knowledge.

      Connect to the console as root, start a shell and type:

      cd /
      du -csm *|sort -n

      Wait for it to finish, the one at the bottom is the largest directory.  To drill down type:

      cd directory
      du -csm *|sort -n

      Repeat until you get the answer you were looking for ;)
