Hi,

I'm wondering whether the current squid implementation cache large
files in chunks?

Let's say the Squid is downloading a large file A for client 1, when
it just finished transferring say 10% of the file, another client,
Client 2 asked for the same file A. Will Squid start serve Client 2
immediately with the 10% of file A it has or Squid has to wait until
all the parts of file A is downloaded in order to get a cache hit.

I saw there were some discussions on this page but not sure what is
its status quo.(

Thanks,
Henry
