[squid-users] question about cache_peer_access

working on a performance problem i found an old newsgroup posting from
hendrik:

in this you said, that cache_peer_access only works with ip-addresses
(already in
internal dns-cache) and not with name-based (or url_regex-based) acls and
that you
have to be patient (at least for the first request). as we heavily use
cache_peer_access
with url_regex-based acls-rules we now wonder whether this can cause some
performance
leaks with our proxy.
when this is the case, what will squid do if all the internet request and so
all dns-
lookups must be forwared to our internet-proxy which is located behind the
firewall?
no the proxy (with cache_peer_access rules) can not do any dns-lookup...?

we are using squid.2.4stable7
