squid max

[Robert Threet <rthreet@yahoo.com>]

I have the lates Squid (running on RH 7.3) on a Compaq 6000 dual
400MHz processor, with a Smart SCSI Array RAID 5, that is dropping
packets.  We upgraded the 10/100 card to a Gigabit interface and it
is still dropping packets.  It doesn't seem to be a CPU issue (load
bounces up and down between 50% and 90% on ONE processor, the other
runs 0% to 50%).  the disk I/O is great - no problem there.  I
would've thought the Gigabit interface would've fixed it.  It's in
transparent mode and the Internet connection is 10MB.  Potentially
2800 users but I'm sure only a fraction of them are using it at a
time.  The downloading of MP3's and streaming stuff is greatly
dimished by a Packeteer Packetshaper.

Is this just too much for a single Squid box?  Is there a way to
cluster this (in transparent mode?)
