just wondering how far drive configuration will affect squid cache performance.

what kind of drive configuration that fast enough for squid ?
is it true that block-level parity strip raid faster than byte-level one ?
is mirrored drive config will decrease squid cache write process ?
how much swap space that squid realy need to store cache (reverse mode) for 200mb web doc ?
what kind of benchmark should i do to analyze squid disk performance ?
