Thanks for the clarification. Even without pipelining, persistent
connections should free up significant CPU on the real servers.

I've been trying to find some benchmarks so that I can get an idea how many
incoming concurrent connections Squid can process per second when acting as
a load balancer in reverse proxy mode with persistent connections to real
servers. Any ideas where I can find some numbers?

Thanks
