I can't answer this, since I don't know, but I'd also be particularly
interested in hearing about this as well - especially if squid would be
able to keep connections open in this form to parent squids. (ie reuse
multiple tcp streams for subsequent requests, rather than go to the
expense of setting up and tearing down tcp streams all the time)
