[squid-users] Failure recovery, reconfiguration/restart during rebuild (Was: How to ignore query terms for store key?)

Thanks, storeurl_rewrite works.  Of course, I shouldn't have chomped
the newline in the first place :)

Now, I'm trying to investigate failure and recovery properties of
Squid 2.7 STABLE9 relative to Squid 2.4:

Specifically, Squid 2.4 cbdata.c memory management sometimes crashed
under high load, apparently due to:
http://www.squid-cache.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=761: assertion failed:
cbdata.c:249: "c->locks > 0" w/diskd

This bug appears on and off in Bugzilla, seems to be partially fixed in:
http://www.squid-cache.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/squid/src/fs/diskd/store_io_diskd.c.diff?r1=1.37&r2=1.38
and
http://bugs.squid-cache.org/attachment.cgi?id=1604,
- then reappears differently. Any insight on this issue?

Another issue with Squid 2.x as parent cache: after failure/restart,
while rebuilding, it opens edge sockets, but it does not serve edge
requests until rebuilding is finished.
This seems to be fixed in Squid 3:
http://bugs.squid-cache.org/show_bug.cgi?id=513
-- How about Squid 2.7?

And finally, any insight from the community on the failure/restart
recovery speed of 2.7 vs 2.4?
How long it takes to rebuild, say, 80% full 16TB drive? More or less
than 15 minutes?

Regards,
Guy
