Specifies the maximum number of certificate generation processes that Squid may spawn (numberofchildren) and several related options. Using too few of these helper processes (a.k.a. "helpers") creates request queues. Using too many helpers wastes your system resources. Squid does not support spawning more than 32 helpers. Usage: numberofchildren [option]... The startup= and idle= options allow some measure of skew in your tuning. startup=N Sets the minimum number of processes to spawn when Squid starts or reconfigures. When set to zero the first request will cause spawning of the first child process to handle it. Starting too few children temporary slows Squid under load while it tries to spawn enough additional processes to cope with traffic. idle=N Sets a minimum of how many processes Squid is to try and keep available at all times. When traffic begins to rise above what the existing processes can handle this many more will be spawned up to the maximum configured. A minimum setting of 1 is required. queue-size=N Sets the maximum number of queued requests. A request is queued when no existing child is idle and no new child can be started due to numberofchildren limit. If the queued requests exceed queue size for more than 3 minutes squid aborts its operation. The default value is set to 2*numberofchildren. You must have at least one ssl_crtd process. |
