vip for multiple squid caches
Hi,
I'm looking at implementing a number of squid caches and using a vip to present a single ip and all that. I'm keen to enable some intelligent proxy choosing so as the same url always goes via the same box, a la "super proxy" scripts... http://naragw.sharp.co.jp/sps/ . Now at the same time i'm aware there's the hash persistence profile, but i'm wondering if that's actually going to help me here. these proxies are for outbound internet access, so the number of different GET's is huge, and whilst it sounds like it's the way to head, is a persistence profile right for the job? Would it not be a better use of resources to not store persistence data a dinstead generate a simple hash of the requested uri the way the above example does? or am i missing something and it actually IS the same thing?
Thanks
Chris
