Squid slowness issues - also a bounty post
-
Same here, no improvements. I appreciate the update though as I had been reading that 'aufs' is pretty much the standard now and disk_d is becoming obsolete.
-
Confirmed again that the aufs change, with squid restart, does nothing. Last check, with squid running, downloads were running about 75% slower than with transparent proxy disabled.
-
I have install another pc with 1.2-RC2. And install squid(stable18) from latest packaged (updated from aufs to disk_d).
it's still not working. speed go down. :(
???
which squid can run on 1.2-RC2?
-
So far the only sure thing is pfsense 1.2rc3, though there have been so many bugfixes since then it hurts to go backwards. If you feel the need to, you can go here…We are still on 1.2rc3 and flying along at full speed.

Set up the new version on a 1.2 Release machine that's plugged into two bonded T1s. If downloads are any slower with the transparent proxy on, its a really a marginal difference.

just test with pfsense 1.2-RC3, and my squid working on it. ;D
maybe it have problem with 1.2release.
Thank you.

What sort of hardware do you run (NIC, CPU, scsi, sas, ide) also what T-1 modem/router are you using? If you have multiple processors, do you use SMP kernel or no?

Two Intel Pro Gbit pci NICs. Cisco 1841 provided by the ISP. CPU is Intel Celeron 420 (i think). The slowest one based on the core 2 arch. Two 80gig sata drives in software raid1. We do regularely have latency and throughput issues, but presence of squid has no effect whatsoever on them, and we've already narrowed it down to the ISPs network not being able to handle the load during peak hours.
