Re: [squid-users] squid not storing objects to disk and gettingRELEASED on the fly

Thanks for the tip. I will try with "heap GSDF" to see if it makes a
difference.
Any idea why the object is not considered as a hot-object and stored in memory?

I have...
minimum_object_size 0 bytes
maximum_object_size 5120 KB

maximum_object_size_in_memory 1024 KB

Earlier we had cache_swap_low and high at 80 and 85% and the physical
memory usage went high leaving only 50MB free out of 15GB.
To fix this issue, the high and low were set to 50 and 55%.

Does this change in "cache_replacement_policy" and the "cache_swap_low
/ high" require a restart or just a -k reconfigure will do it?

Current usage: Top
