Well I can't offer you much info, but I am running squid on a solaris 10 sparc
box (v100) using zfs for the cache and logging areas of squid. It's not a
high performing system but my impression is that performance has improved, but
I haven't done any benchmarking, the v100 is pretty low spec cpu and only 1
IDE hd. However, I can recommend using zfs for your caching filesystem.
Also on solaris 10 make sure you compile squid with --enable-devpoll to get
good performance.
