RE: [squid-users] Beta testers wanted for 3.2.0.1 - Changing 'workers' (from 1 to 2) is not supported and ignored

The cache_dir setting in the if..else ..endif does not seem to take effect.
Squid -z does create the cache subdirectory without issue, but the squid seems to use the default cache directory as if didn't see the if statement.

===== squid.conf====
workers 2
if ${process_number} = 1
cache_dir aufs /usr/local/squid/var/a 500 16 256
else
cache_dir aufs /usr/local/squid/var/b 500 16 256
endif

if ${process_number} = 1

Another method if you want a cache_dir for each is to have a numbered
subdirectory for each worker:

   cache_dir aufs /var/cache/${process_number} ...

Then squid -z to create as usual. Just remember that this will take up N
times the configured directory size.
