Hey Guys,

What does squid do when a request is aborted and it's meant to carry on downloading the object (via quick_abort) and the client was part of a delay_pool.

From http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/DelayPools (under the heading of "There are some limitations of delay pools"):

"delay pools are incompatible with slow aborts; quick abort should be set fairly low to prevent objects being retrieved at full speed once there are no clients requesting them (as the traffic allocation is based on the current clients, and when there are no clients attached to the object there is no way to determine the traffic allocation)."


e.g. Client -----> delay_pool -----> Squid     # Downloads at dp speed

     Client --x--> delay_pool -----> Squid     # Now what speed ?

Cheers,

Pieter
