Hey, Squid 4 is tested on Amazon Linux 2. I have tested it in the lat year.. and I believe that there is no reason to run a full set of tests now. Squid 4 only needs a basic “dry-run” to make sure what you need to change in your squid.conf. I do suggest to first run it whiteout any cache-dir for maybe an hour. Do not go back to CentOS 7. To my knowledge Amazon Linux 2 receives a better over-all support then CentOS 7. From my tests in the past Amazon Linux 2 is faster and is a LTS distribution so you will have someone to contact in any case of trouble. Compared to CentOS X which you will be in the grace of your own efforts and “google foo”. I believe that you would not want to find your self in a situation which you try to contact upstream RH for help. Feel free to send me or the mailing lists any email you want. I will try to at-least read them if I cannot respond on the spot.

How much time, testing will take? If it will take time , then I am thinking to change the Operating system to Centos 7 from Amazon Linux 2 and then install Squid 4?

First save the existing config files. The RPM files are at: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AoiLG1Jyh7JqoiBbOtBMb9wuAfjS?e=9XeXCS You will need to install: perl-Crypt-OpenSSL-X509-0.1-1.amzn2.noarch.rpm It’s a dummy recursive package that installs basic dependencies. You will not be able to install the squid-helpers packages without it. Then install the RPM’s: squid-4.12-1.amzn2.x86_64.rpm squid-helpers-4.12-1.amzn2.x86_64.rpm If you have installed squid RPM’s from other sources/repositories you will need to first uninstall/remove then and only then install the ngtech RPM’s. If for any reason you need the sources for the RPM’s take a peek at: https://github.com/elico/squid-docker-build-nodes https://gist.github.com/elico/5fa3050ed1a7247fbf2f6810c74933cc Eliezer ---- Eliezer Croitoru Tech Support Mobile: +972-5-28704261 Email: ngtech1ltd@xxxxxxxxx From: DIXIT Ankit Hi, We have two squid servers running in our environment.
I think you are right, please provide the Squid rpm version 4 for Amazon Linux 2 Or link to download.

If RPM’s are needed, let me know.

I would start by making sure that you are not suffering from Squid bug #4005: https://bugs.squid-cache.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4005 After that, if you are sure that there is a memory leak, then I suggest upgrading to v4 (or v5) as the next step. IMHO, it is unlikely that somebody would volunteer to triage a v3.5 memory leak these days.
