Mikrotik 2.9.38 seems to run squid/2.5.STABLE11. The latest Squid stable is squid-2.6.STABLE6. Could we get Squid updated? The new Mikrotik proxy cache seems to run out of RAM under heavy use and slow down or reboot the router.
Will Squid be in Mikrotik 3.x? What are the pro’s and con’s of Mikrotik Cache vs. Squid?
I am also looking for a high eficient web-proxy. I’d like to see MK supporting multiples hard disks and a lot of RAM memory. I’ve tested squid with RAID and without RAID with multiples hard disks, using separates disks the result was better. Diskd has better performance but my squid sometimes was freezing for some seconds on high load. I want MK perfect proxy solution
better use router as router & cache as cache…MK is working well with roter functionality…i would recond them to concentrate on routing…let squid ppl do the squid work
