We've managed to compile a 64-bit binary, but no response from squid and some silly messages appear.
My questions:
- are there successfull implementations of 64-bit squid out there?
- is it worth the effort to get squid 64-bit running properly?
- any hints/tips for tuning HP-UX 11.31 for squid?
My regards will be enormeous!
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionFirstly, why do not try more
recent versions. Squid 2.7 oldish.
a) Did you try the following versions:
http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Networking/WWW/squid-3.0.STABLE16/
b) I am amazed that you use cache_mem of
more than 2 GB. Why?
This parameter does not specify the maximum
process size but the limit on how much
additional RAM Squid will use as memory cache.
I do not know how many users Squid serves so
it is difficult to know your design goals.
c) Squid has not been very much tested running in 64-bit mode in 64-bit
environments. If you do not really need
huge cache_mem, than you do not need it
anyway.
Could you provide more details
on how many users is Squid supposed to
support in your environment, what
authentication (if any) it will use,
how much cache on disk you plan to
set up, and so on.
Cheers,
VK2COT

I did'nt know v3 has already quite some time 'production'-status...
> Porting and Archives: squid-3.0.STABLE16
also 32-bit, with this 900MB memory size limit...

with a cache_mem of 200MB, the process size keeps a little below 900 MB. Above the size
squid crashes with: FATAL: xcalloc: Unable to allocate 1 blocks of 120 bytes!

Yes, I'm familiar with squid and his configuration

We ran past 4 years with squid on Tru64 with about 2000 users. From the Internet Express kit from HP.

I hope on more cache-hit rate with a larger cache...
> on how many users for Squid
about 2000 individuals spread over 50 Citrix servers
> what authentication
none
> how much cache on disk
64 GB
Our squid cannot connect to Internet, but via a (non-squid) proxy from our provider.
Thanks for your help!

By linking with -N, you can double the size to 2 Gb, without porting to 64 bit.

Re: 64-bit: compile squid 2.6 on 11.31/Itanium
But are there any experiences with about 2000 squid users on HP-UX?
Is this the proper forum for this question?
