Squid as reverse proxy, too slow
 

Hallo:

I've been using squid-cache for a long time for authentication/authorization. It has work fine for years, but now it starts working too slow only in one computer (the others, works fine).

It's configured as a reverse proxy.

Can any tell me if has had a problem like this?

I see it can be a DNS problem, but the computer is configured with the same dns servers in resolv.conf that the other computers have.

I use squid 2.6.stable14 on RHEL 4.4.

If I restart the service (service squid restart) it works fine, but 15-20 minutes later, the problem repeats.

Regards

Is it just a reverse proxy? Or is it caching also? If it's caching also have you tried clearing out the cache? How are your disks? Any errors?
