...and run the novm version, as in linux the buffer cache makes in-memory
cacheing redundant. Utilising the "lots of FDs" patch is a must, and if you
have a real big intranet than recompile squid to really use that many FDs.
(I have 10000+ client, and if the firewall gets rebooted, squid runs out of
the compiled 1024 FD limit within a minute.)

True. I have 128M RAM, which is fine, but not a conservative setup at all,
but one of my processors have no work.
Given that it is for a 1Mbps line fully utilized, and a 10000+ company,
for your ~1000 client 128M and one processor seems to be conservative
enough.

It would be warmly welcomed!
