Hi everybody
I want to tune my squid service in order to increase Hit percentage and I have more bandwidth saving.may you guide me for this purpose ?
thanks for any help

squid has an option to also use the proxy from your provider or another external proxy in addition
squid => external proxy => internet
the hit percentage of these are bigger than yours
take a look in the squid faq

thanks for your attention
good trick.Can you give me more tricks about increasing Hit and performance of squid ??
thanks for any help or guidance

you need to create the hits your self, so surf a lot :-)
Perhaps use an external proxy, since these have many users.

(Vaguely) this question has been asked before. I know, 'cos last time i answered it I got it wrong (slightly). I would suggest these steps.

• Monitor your hit rate
• Adjust config
• Monitor your hit rate

When adjust the config, look at http://www.linux.com/feature/153221. The trouble is, most of the things that you can do to increase the hit rate described in the article ae in danger of breaking something, whether that is an RFC or your user's browsing experience. It is up to you to decide to what extent you are prepared to take that risk (and you may want to take into account whether your users are prepared to force a page reload occasionally).

Oh, and there is also adjusting the memory size appropriately, but for that you also have to monitor your hit rate...
