[squid-users] R: [squid-users] Cancelled downloads

Hmmm..
So I guess this behaviour is caused by these following lines:

range_offset_limit -1
maximum_object_size 200 MB
quick_abort_min -1

Which are used to cache the most possible from windows update... (from: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/WindowsUpdate)
At this point I'm asking if there's any workaround for this.. I mean: is it possible to make "quick_abort_min" to be set to -1 only for windows updates,
and have it behave normally for the rest of the websites?

Thanks a lot

This is the default behaviour of Squid.

Check your configuration settings for:
  http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/quick_abort_max/
  http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/quick_abort_min/
  http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/quick_abort_pct/
