Disk space used by squid.

crazyzoar

is it possible to see the disk(mb) used by cache data by using any thing?????

Yes, quite easy actually.. you just need to SSH into your box (use PutTy or something similar)

Then select number 8 to access the Shell

browse to the squid directory:
cd /var/squid/

To see the size of the whole cache folder run this command:
du -h cache

This will go through the whole directory and then show you a total size at the end.

jimp

FYI- you don't need to use ssh or the console for that, you can use Diagnostics > Command and if you just want to know the total size of the whole cache (+swap.state), run:

du -hkd 0 /var/squid/cache
