Interesting... Here's what I did (downloaded patch from here http://devel.squid-cache.org/cgi-bin/diff2/epoll-2_5.patch?s2_5): #> tar zxvf squid.tar.gz #> mv squid-2.5STABLE12/ squid #> patch -p0 < epoll-2_5.patch #> cd squid #> ulimit -HSn 8192 #> ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/squid --enable-async-io --enable-snmp --enable-htcp --enable-underscores --enable-epoll #> make (etc..) Can you help me understand what I missed? I've never worked with CVS or bootsrap.sh, so please be specific :) -----Original Message----- From: Chris Robertson [mailto:crobertson@xxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, February 23, 2006 10:04 AM To: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: post epoll... > -----Original Message----- > From: Gregori Parker [mailto:gregori@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Thursday, February 23, 2006 8:49 AM > To: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: post epoll... > > > So, I rebuilt squid with the epoll patch, hoping to get cpu usage down > some...now I'm seeing this a LOT in the cache.log (more than once per > minute) > > storeClientCopy3: http://xxx.xxxx.com/xxx/abc.xyz - clearing > ENTRY_DEFER_READ > > Should I 86 the patch?

How did you go about patching the Squid source? Where you aware that you have to run bootstrap.sh after patching (and that doing so requires specific versions of autoconf and automake)? Did you apply the patch to the most recent Squid source (or download the CVS version with the epoll tag)? FWIW, I'm running epoll on Squid2.5 STABLE11 without problem. Chris
