RE: [squid-users] Quick question

Interesting, so on ext4 (which is what I am using) there's no performance
differences between using different numbers?

That depends on the OS filesystem underlying the cache, and the size of
objects in it.

The L1/L2 settings matter on FS which have a per-directory limit on inode
entries, or need to scan the full list on each file open/stat event (I think
that was FAT32, NTFS, maybe ext2, maybe old unix FS). On FS which do not do
those two things they are just an admin convenience.
