Well, it is a start :) but I'm actually more interested in supporting
optimisations that each unix flavour gives (the aio support in
solaris/linux/freebsd, reiserfs_raw and other disk-based directory
schemes, FreeBSD's kqueue, various forms of zero-copy sockets ..
these are the things that could help squid really perform well but
they are just too difficult to implement cleanly without the
massive changes I'm doing.
