I can attest to stable performance under squid 2.7STABLE. The only outstanding bugs I've observed are:

1. COSS is always dirty when squid is shut down, so it must be rebuilt every startup
2. -F flag does not wait for COSS rebuild before binding ports

Item 2 has a patch pending, coming to a STABLE release near you. I'd recommend running redundant squids due to #1, however.

Dear list,
I'm learning squid with Squid: The definitive guide. The book show
great performance of COSS storage scheme, but it still unstable. I'm
wondering in this time with squid 3.0, is it stable? I'm trying to
google and squid wiki but most of information is outdated. Do you have
any idea about it?

Regard,

COSS is not stable enough for production use in 3.0. The bugs fixed in 2.7 were not yet ported over. They are not expected to be done before 3.2 either, but depending on the fix maybe back-ported when done.

Patches against 3.HEAD are always welcome and Alex would like some help if anyone is interested in seeing COSS stable anytime soon.
