USAGE
This patch is a variation of the TOS marking ZPH patch with a modification
that permits SQUID to mark HIT responses acquired by parent/sibling cache engines
as ordinary local HITs. This gives opportunities for better QoS solutions in
a hierarchical caching topologies.
In all other cases this TOS patch version is essentially the same as the one
supplied by Venkatesh Reddy (so you do not need to upgrade if you are using
it). Anyway, if you are going to use the TOS patch, I recomend this one, because
it is generally more universal.
Enough words, grab it:
squid-2.5.STABLE4-TOS_Hit_sibling.patch (Works with STABLE3 and STABLE4)
squid-2.5.STABLE4-TOS_Hit_sibling_20040219.patch
- For latest STABLE4 builds
