1GB of RAM is cutting it close for a full 62GB cache. 2GB RAM would
be much better in that situation. My cache is currently 26GB holding
about 2.1 million objects, which is not even half the total size of
your cache, and Squid is using 380MB of RAM. That means your cache
will see at _least_ twice the memory usage of Squid, or at least
760MB. If you need performance more than hit ratio, I would
definately suggest reducing the cache size.
