"We are currently in a beta-test period for Squid-1.2. If you like seeing Squid coredump frequently, please join us!" "This is BETA software. Do not run this on your production systems. Logfile formats are subject (and likely) to change at any time without warning. Here is a brief list of the major features of this version: HTTP/1.1 persisitent connections. Lower VM usage; in-transit objects are not held fully in memory. Totally independent swap directories. Customizable error texts. FTP supported internally; no more ftpget. Asynchronous disk operations (optional, requires pthreads library). Internal icons for FTP and gopher directories. snprintf() used everywhere instead of sprintf(). ...and many more! " As well, there is support for using MD5 or SHA hashes of URL's in the cache index for space (and speed?) savings, SNMP support, poll(2) is used by default, etc. Please see http://squid.nlanr.net/Squid/1.2.beta/ before using.

This is the Squid Internet Object Cache developed by the National
|
|
Laboratory for Applied Networking Research (NLANR) and Internet
|
|
volunteers. This software is freely available for anyone to use.
|
|
The Squid home page is http://squid.nlanr.net/Squid/.
|
|
|
|
This software is based on the Harvest Object Cache developed by
|
|
the University of Colorado and the University of Southern California.
|
|
The Harvest home page is http://harvest.cs.colorado.edu/.
|
|
|
|
ARPA funding for the Harvest project has ended, the squid project has
|
|
continued development of the cache where Harvest finished.
