[squid-users] cache_dir

i have increased value from

cache_dir ufs /usr/local/squid/var/cache 100 16 256

to

cache_dir ufs /usr/local/squid/var/cache 1000 16 256

i didn't see any changes other then cache dir got 10 times bigger,
among other reasons one of the main reason was to save traffic, most
of our users go to 1 website, after we start using squid i didnt see
any traffic saving, its same as it was... i then tried to 2000 and
3000, same thing...

also whenever i have a need to restart squid does this "Store
rebuilding" which takes forever, is there a way to skip this? or is
this a nessesery step? and on the top of all this i get this
statistics
