squid compilation

[Benjamin <benjo11111@xxxxxxxxx>]

 Hi,

I want to use squid version on centos 6.So for that i wonder that do i 
compile squid latest stable version from squid source code or should i 
go with rpm package which i get from my distro.?

Actually my concern is that installation of rpm / compilation from 
source code are same while compare with squid features ?

And as per my purpose with squid, we want to use it for only high cache 
performance, so for that do i need to take care of specific squid feature ?

And please provide me any good document or link from where i can have 
good understanding of each squid features which we get while compilation 
process in ./configure command.


Warm Regards,
Bejno
