Hi Tru64ers
I've just installed squid on a PWS 500 au with 256 MB of RAM and
1.6GB of swap running DU (TU?) 4.0C (soon to be upgraded to D or E).
This will be running as a proxy server for a network of only about
100 PCs and workstations and with initially about a 2GB cache.
I've attached some tuning suggestions from Digital's internet
tuning page and one from the squid FAQ.
Does anyone have any other recommendations or any advice
specifically about tuning Tru64 unix for squid?
Thanks
Ian

The advice was to modify these kernel subsystem parameters (current
values in brackets):
socket
somaxconn = 65535 (1024)
sominconn = 65535 (0)
sbcompress_threshold = 600 (0)
inet
tcbhashsize = 16384 (32)
pmtu_enabled = 0 (1)
ipport_userreserved = 65000 (5000)
vm
vm-mapentries = 20000 (1000000)
vm-maxvas = 10737418240 (1073741824)
proc
maxusers = 2048 (128)
max-proc-per-user = 512 (64)
max-threads-per-user = 4096 (256)
max-per-proc-data-size = 10737418240 (1073741824)
max-per-proc-address-space = 10737418240 (1073741824)
Some of these might not be relevant to squid (e.g. inet) and
probably apply to a much bigger cache than ours.
From:
http://squid.nlanr.net/Squid/FAQ/FAQ.html
To increase the data size for Digital UNIX, edit the file
/etc/sysconfigtab and add the entry...
proc:
per-proc-data-size=1073741824 (134217728)
Or, with csh, use the limit command, such as
> limit datasize 1024M
