Hi all, would like to know if from user perspective the signal 6 will have a significant http service interruption. I've tested this with wget and sent a kill -6 to the child process and to my surprise wget was still downloading without any service interruption. How would loadbalancers handle this behaviour ? Do they notice this signal 6 ? By the way is signal 6 really $ kill -l 6) SIGABRT ? e.g. Aug 4 10:19:25 mybox squid[13220]: http.cc(542) cacheableReply: HttpStateData: :cacheableReply: unexpected http status code 604 Aug 4 10:19:25 mybox squid[13220]: ctx: exit level 0 Aug 4 10:27:27 mybox squid[13220]: assertion failed: store_client.cc:430: "STO RE_DISK_CLIENT == getType()" Aug 4 10:27:27 mybox squid[11814]: Squid Parent: child process 13220 exited du e to signal 6 with status 0 Aug 4 10:27:30 mybox squid[11814]: Squid Parent: child process 14441 started Aug 4 10:27:30 mybox squid[14441]: Starting Squid Cache version 3.1.0.12-20090 803 for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu...
