Re: [squid-users] Zero Sized Reply [attn: long post]

I would like to say that I am using ~4 Squid-2.5.STABLE4's which have
about 190-250 users connected to each on average and haven't had any
problems with "Zero Sized Reply"s. I would probably suspect my
connection if that were the case. I'll post my squid.conf, however, so
you can look at it: (Hope it helps, sorry for the <censored>s)
