Cache dynamic content with squid refresh_pattern

[Guest]

[kieronrob]

Hi all,

I see this has been done in squid for dynamic content as well as windows and various AV updates.

Has anyone had any success with this in Endian? I have tried some patterns and it bombs out squid.

This can help with bandwidth and improve performance.

Please post any conf files that have this working!

I am using version 2.5.2 at the moment.

Hi All

I also require dynamic content examples. I have tried posts on previous refresh_patterns but it does not seem to work.
My EFW version is also 2.5.2
Majority of websites use dynamic content

If anyone has working configs, please post

Thanks

Hi Ferdinandbabst,

I have these refresh patterns in squid now and they have not caused squid to stop working as yet. These must be inserted in /etc/squid/squid.conf.tmpl so that they do not get overwritten by changes in the web interface. I have increased the hit ratio to around 20%, but as I do not have many windows machines I cannot gauge their effectiveness on updates.

Please try them and post your results!

i inserted them at around line 264 in the squid.conf.tmpl file:

I used WinSCP as it has a nice editor. These lines might wrap in this post so make sure of the format.

   I need a recipe, because so far you can't do video cache, someone managed to?

use the Endian 2.5.2
