[squid-users] Tweaking Disk Access on Linux

    Hello Guys,

    I know Linux has an utility called hdparm. It seems that this utility can be used to 'tweak' some HD/controller parameters, speeding up I/O stuff.

    Questions:

    1) Am I Right ? Can hdparm really be used to tweak something, and make disk access faster ?
    2) If yes, I'd like some examples and opinions on how using it, if possible. Links would be equally useful.
    3) If 1 is yes, can it be used on IDE and SCSI disks, or only in one of them ?

    Hope hearing from you soon,
