the request is automatically retried on the next available helper.
If 50% of the configured helpers dies Squid starts a new set of helpers
automatically.
And each time you rotate the logs a new set of helpers is started.

The failure case is handled in src/helper.cc look for the word exited
and you'll find the relevant code.

trying to reconnect at least once per query is recommended. While the
automatic restart of the helpers should work it's much nicer on
everything if the helper tries to recover first..
if this is not done then the request will bounce over all the old
helpers each of them crashing as the earlier db connection is gone,
until it finally hits one which still works..
