Hi,

I know this isn't really what you asked, but we have three server machines
running. Below is the log from ONE for yesterday, the logs can be huge, the
total so far today (we rotate every day: 279274787 Nov 10 22:01 access.log)

We have up to around 20,000 employees using the three servers.

I am not trying to play "mine's bigger than yours" but actually to
see if anyone else has much experience with systems on this scale ?

===========
Total requests handled this day: 2,007,383

Requests Satisfied by the cache: 859,223
Requests Proxied 1,148,160
Total number of requests served: 2,007,383 ***
Bytes sent for cache requests: 1,994,722,801
Bytes sent for proxy requests: 6,326,828,633
Total number of bytes sent: 8,321,551,434 ***

Cache Hit Rate
Requests: 42.80%
Bytes: 23.97%

Number of Mb sent by this server: 7936.05
Number of hosts using this server: 11,915

Average number of requests/day: 2,007,383
Average number of requests/hour: 83640.96
Average number of requests/minute: 1394.02
====================

The really gory bit each of three boxes is: Sun E250
2x400MHz U-II, 1Gb RAM, Sol 2.6, VxFS and six 9Gb 10,000rpm drives
running Squid/2.2.STABLE5-hno.20000202 with usual Sparc tweaking.

Thanks for any info, any sorry to completely miss the original
question .. 8-)

regards,
Martin
