Squid Cache Hit Rate.
-
I am trying my best to figure out a way to increase the squid cache hit rate.
in the last 3-4 days its been a pathetic 8-11% for around 80-90 users and an average of 5.8G download.
Seriously. this is just bad.
Any tips on how to increase the hit rate? (other than doing offline mode LOL)

Wow, my hit rate Is just 2-3 % for 10 users and ca. 6 GB of downloads :(

This can be espected as squid "engine" is not that good for dynamic/session pages.
I saw it on one doc comparing squid and varnish.
https://www.varnish-cache.org/trac/wiki/ArchitectNotesA test I did once was configuring a varnish daemon as proxy server sending to a squid as backend. The result was some times faster then squid itself.
But I'm sure that there is some config options to improve cache hit.
