Probably true.

For an accelerator you probably want to remove the request windowing,
and instead have Squid suck down the reply as fast as possible from the
origin server and then push it out to the clients at their speeds.

change src/forward.c:fwdCheckDeferRead to always return 0.

Note that there is an issue in memory usage if you have very large
objects.
