Amos, your squid-users announcement says that it applies to 2.7 as
well; will the same changes (switch default, remove later) be applied
there?
FWIW, I've never seen this happen on 2.x. Has anyone else?
Note that turning half_closed_clients off has an effect on quick_abort
(at least in 2.x); without it, if the client aborts before headers are
received, quick_abort doesn't have time to kick in; with it, it will
operate even if the client aborts that early.
This behaviour is pretty desirable in an accelerator setup...
Cheers,

Alex mentions seeing bad side effects and it being maybe unsuitable
for a stable release.
I posit that it is suitable to change the cause of a major bug in
the stable release and a config default is safer than a core code
change.
As for further testing, we have a few users who have encountered the
bug already and tested the config change. With good results. Henrik
reports that many of his customers have done so as well.
People who have explicitly set their configuration and are happy are
not affected. For those who need to enable it, I think we have 3-
HEAD and 2.7.
