[squid-users] How does squid choose which cache_dir to use?

 Hello
 I am testing FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT and zfs.

 I am using:

cache_dir aufs /cache0 24000 32 128
cache_dir aufs /squidcache1 90000 64 256
cache_dir aufs /squidcache2 90000 64 256
cache_dir aufs /squidcache3 90000 64 256

 Cache0= standard ufs/ffs filesystem slice of da0
 /squidcache1/2/3 = a whole disk 147G (da2/da2/da3) utilizing zfs. (basicly
in JBOD)

 (it's new, it's cool, but how does it work with squid...)

 Normally, (when all using ufs/ffs) all the squidcache1/2/3 dirs start filling
first and the cache0 dir fills slowest. However, with the 3 using zfs, cache0
is filling much faster. Is this indicitive of the 3 cache_dirs using zfs
are somehow slower, so its using cache0 more?

 Thanks!
