This happens when we use the default path for the cache dir (/var/squid/cache).

The function squid_resync() calls squid_chown_recursive() for the directory /var/squid, which can takes ages to go through the cache subdirectory.

I don't really know what would be the "perfect" way to fix this, but my first idea of workaround is to put the cache directory outside /var/squid.

Thanks

you should put your cache to different HDD

shell chown recursive might be faster than in php code.

change them to

function squid_chown_recursive($dir, $user, $group) {
exec("chown -R $user:$group $dir");
}
