[squid-users] squid-2.7 pre-release testing

Hi everyone,

I've had a couple of people report that Squid-2.7 snapshots are working
for them. We had a couple of memory leak hiccups which were sorted out
reasonably quickly.

I'd like to get Squid-2.7 released as soon as possible so I can continue
with the code restructuring and performance improvements. To this effect,
I would appreciate it if a few Squid-2.6 users would be willing to
upgrade to the latest Squid-2.7 snapshot and provide feedback on
performance and stability.

Chances are you won't see much in the way of performance improvements
with this release but, time and funding permitting, I hope to push through
plenty of improvements in Squid-2.8, including HTTP/1.1 support
(which Henrik has been steadily working on, his time and funding permitting)
IPv6 support with a focus on improving performance.

You can fetch the daily snapshots from:

Thanks!
