[squid-users] Can I enlarge my storage size?

Hi,

I really want to enlarge my storage from 28 gig to 50 gig but are unsure
whether the memory figures I'm getting at the moment will let me.

I have 1024 swap of which 1/4 is used.

I have 512 ram of which all is used.

Can I go to 50 gig without locking up?

Below is:

Top sorted by mem usage.

Machine config, squid.conf and full mrtg graphs.

Kind Regards

Stuart Clark
