what is the max gb supported by mt for webproxy?
i have installed a 180gb but it only recognizes 56gb
does it depend on the amount of available RAM?..
We install 80 gigers in our PoweRouters without issues. SATAs.

do you use webproxy or webproxy-test package?
Standard proxy package.
elkolo23, I use proxy-test, and when I decrease maximum RAM cache size, maximum size of Disk cache increases
We put them in the PoweRouter 732s, that starts off with 512meg DDR2 RAM.

By default the proxy cache can use as much disk space as there is allocated for it. When the system allocates the space for the proxy cache, 1/7th of the total partition (disk) size is reserved for the system, but not less than 50MB. The rest is left for the proxy cache. The system RAM size is considered as well when allocating the cache size. The cache size is limited so, that there are at least 15MB of RAM per 1GB of cache plus 55MB of RAM is reserved for the system. max-cache-size is also taken in account, so the cache will not occupy more than it is specified in this property. The effective limit is calculated as a minimum of all three limits. Note also that RouterOS supports up to 950MB of memory at 2.9 (3.0 provides support for 2GB of RAM).
So.. Maybe I am understanding this.. Lets find out.
512 meg RAM in system - 55 meg for system usage. Equals: 457meg
457 meg divided by 15meg per gig gives us 30.46. So is this then the limit of the cache size i.e. 30.46 gig of space?
In version 3.0, this limit would be 132.66gig assuming 2048 meg ram, minus 55 for system, divided by 15meg per gig.
yes/no?
yes, partially. new proxy in v3 has no limits, it will not eat all memory, it manages it a lot smarter. hence, no more space limitation there.
but why i faced a system hang-up after i enable redirect port 80 to proxy port ? the hang-up happen suddenly after 1 or 2 or maybe 10 hrs ..
i test 2 brnad new PC’s with V3 R 4 , 5 ..
its a big problem for me and i send support file without any response as usual !!!
its absolutly a joke !!! are they kidding ??? its $1399.99 !!!
$1399.99 for a PC + level4 ??? wht can this do more than a used P3 = $ 100 ???
Quite a bit.
- Industrial Mainboard, MTBF of 90,000 hours
- Indurtial Power Supply with Dual Paths, MTBF over 40,000 hours
- 7 gigabit ethernet ports all indvidual PCI-Express
- P4 3 gig Dual Core Processor
- 1U rack Mount unit!
- RouterOS v2.9 and v3 tested
- Intergraded LCD
- Expandable, PCI and mPCI slot! Plus 2.5 gig HD support via IDE or SATA.
- Tested, high preformance, relaliablity compaired to Cisco Gear.
- Size! 1U is extreamly small form factor
Great advantages, small form factor, 7 gigabit NICs, and more. It all depends on what you want. It is a x86 based system, but nothing you can hit your local computer store to purchase.
still nothing more than used P3 , it still the same software wich is the most important here , its like you want to go buy cigarette by taking Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet !!!
How it is nothing more than P3? Dual core processor, so bigger processor, industiral hardware, 1U form Factor, and it has 7 gigabits on it? Don’t think you are comapiring apples to apples here.
dear friend , its amazing , but PRICE comparing with what we need is madness , with its price we can install 4 X P4 3G CPU , 120G HD , R44G lan card , etc …
of course it doesn’t look impressive on paper, but you can’t compare industrial gear to old homemade pc that can die any minute 
N.
Maybe we r going a little bit out off topic but you can’t compare the affidability of industrial solutions with p3 atx based solutions.
At last that’s why you can choose according to the budget
For the things it promises the price for PoweRouter 732s doesn’t seem exaggerated to me.
Then… my PII sucks! 
gmsmstr is that a LCD on the front of the PoweRouter 732 ?
What size is it???
