Dear list, I am using delay pools to slow down download when all parents are down and the child has to fetch the content itself via backup line. When troubleshooting low download rates I figured that the delay pools are slowing down transfer rates even when no-delay is set in the parent definition. Disabled delay pools as a workaround - everything is fast and fine. Yes, the request is definitely going via parent. child OS is debian etch/lenny with squid installed from repository, parents are debian lenny dto. squid from debian repository. same effect on childs running lenny and etch. This setup worked fine for ages! Any ideas?
Does sound like a bug. We will need to know the actual release number of Squid you are using.
Assuming you do have the latest package, that still leaves Etch as 3.0.PRE5 and Lenny as one of 3.0.STABLE8, 3.0.STABLE19 or 3.1.3-2 depending on the repository used.
Amos -- Please be using Current Stable Squid 2.7.STABLE9 or 3.1.3
