[squid-users] Squid with large memory

Is it possible to build a machine with say 16GB of RAM and have squid
store virtually everything in RAM without using a ram disk?

How efficiently will it use the RAM in the system (with cache_mem set
to a very high value)?

What sort of algorithm is used to determine which pages get stored in
memory? I would assume that it stores the most requested pages in memory.

thanks
