I changed asset cache settings. assets stored in s3 bucket and cached using squid.
in a month, 43.7 million requests with avg 2.8ms latency, but using over 70% inodes on root, which is a concern, so i moved cache directory to dedicated 1tb drive.

current:

inodes to 2% is a good improvement. I increased the size of RAM cache a bit from 32GB to 48Gb which should help decrease latency.
no assets were harmed during this production. hehe
