Ignore my comment. Amos' comment is accurate, and the SmpScale imbalance
does not apply to this case.
I was confused by the "workers" terminology used in this thread instead
of "instances". To me, "workers" imply SMP, but the "Frontend Balancer
Alternative 1: iptables" setup discussed in this thread uses essentially
independent Squid instances rather than identically configured SMP
workers. Those independent instances can be implemented using an SMP
configuration with a workers directive, but I do not consider such an
implementation a supported use case (some do).
Sorry for the noise,
Alex.
