Hi,
I want to know that is there any way to check that how much size of squid cache directory is full? Normally when squid size will reach upto 2GB then I have to clean it.

Code:

# cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid 2000 16 256

I assign 2000 MB to the cache size. One month have been pass while squid is running but i am unable to know how to check the current status of my squid cache size.
kindly guide me

Squid deletes old objects by default.
To see the cache size

Code:

du -hs /var/spool/squid/

Kind regards
