Re: [squid-users] squid using more bandwidth!!!

Dear Ahmad,

i am using squid in an ISP invironment,
The squid is getting the following number of requests according to mrtg.
      Max HTTP requests 406.0 req/min Average HTTP requests 152.0
req/min Current HTTP requests 32.0 req/min

according to cachemgr
Byte Hit Ratios: 5min: 12.1%, 60min: 10.6%

according to mrtg the cache stats of # hits
      Max Hostname-to-Address Hits 129.2 k (25.8%) Average
Hostname-to-Address Hits 39.3 k (7.9%) Current Hostname-to-Address Hits
96.1 k

I will not be able to use cache without wccp there are some network
limitations here.
