As I am not using FreeBSD I can't comment on the kqueue.

What I can comment on is the stability of Squid-3 and it is not yet ready
for production use and I would not recommend using it on a production
server at this time unless you have the resources to both test carefully
and help fixing problems when they arise.

You are most welcome to try it out in a lab and report your findings
however.

Henrik
