I agree that many Squid3 parts should be fixed, polished, or thrown away. However, I think that we should focus on making Squid3 stable first, and the performance/polishing work you are discussing should be done for v3.1. There are plenty of users who can use Squid3 that is stable but not very fast. > An alternate for me is to try fix the bugs and rewrite some of the > icap-related parts of the squid26-icap branch. I don't know .... This would be a bad idea from my biased point of view. While the code migration to Squid3 was poorly done, we are already at the point where we can make Squid3 work for your purposes instead of going back. Please do not forget that Squid2 has its own problems; it is not like you will be migrating to a great code that just needs a yet another ICAP patch! Alex.
