It's how much of the cache Squid should digest at a time when rebuilding the cache digest. No requests is processed while this is done, only very briefly between chunks. Hmm.. not even sure why this directive exists. I think it should scan one bucket at a time.. digest rebuilding is not a very high priority item and blocking request forwarding for this is not good... Alex: do you remember why this directive was added? Regards Henrik
