This is not the case for me. I've had half_closed_clients set to off, and I continue to get more than 5 or so log lines of this per second. Henrik's earlier confirmation of setting the debug level in the patch to debug(20, 2) was a more useful reply for me. --john ----- Original Message ---- From: Chris Robertson <crobertson@xxxxxxx> To: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, April 10, 2006 5:47:28 PM Subject: Re: epoll and ENTRY_DEFER_READ messages lawrence wang wrote: >I've got Squid-2.5.STABLE13 with the epoll patch, and I'm getting a >lot of "clearing ENTRY_DEFER_READ" messages in my cache.log.

The linked message would be so much clearer... *sigh* The short answer is that these messages are likely harmless, and can be greatly reduced by setting "half_closed_clients off" in the squid.conf, but that the epoll patch is not certified production ready, and may "fry your computer and eat your lunch".
