[squid-users] PC133 SDRAM Fast Enough; StoreEntry

Is PC133 SDRAM fast enough or must you use DDR? What will the performance
difference be between the two?

I keep thinking that with ~40gig in the cache it must cycle through all the
RAM to see if it has a copy of the requested object. So will SDRAM be a
major slow down compared to DDR?

To go into this further. Squid keeps a 72 byte MD5 StoreEntry for every
object in the cache. So with ~7 million objects in the cache does Squid
need to search on average half of 512M of RAM to see if a given object is in
the cache? How does this work?
