A bit too optimistic. I did a lot of assembler programming (incl. device
drivers for special HW) for RT-systems (16bit/32bit), using OS, which were
especially designed to handle RT-tasks using HW/SW-interrupts. I very doubt,
that ANY SW (not only squid) running on LINUX really can be called real-time
program. Because it should react during fractions of microseconds to
external events.
Depends on what the definition of RT is...
RT should be something reliable for a human to use in realtime and not
in the RealMathematicalTime.
There is no human that can think in a microsecond.
if there is a human that can think in a microsecond it means he can
think\calc faster then a computer.
What do you think?
