Re: [SQU] Page faults with Solaris 8

Solaris pagefaults for all disk I/O IIRC, so high pagefaults numbers are
probably to be expected.

Recommendation: Read up a bit on Sun Solaris performance tuning. SUN has
even published a good book on the subject, covering most aspects you
need to know (and a bit more).

For Squid you need to have the box tuned for an application which both
uses lots of memory and disk I/O.
