In what way is this missing? What are the advantages/disadvantages? In Multi-Squid environments it allows to exchange cache-digests between squid-peers. The disadvantage is an automatic generation of cache-digests every 10minutes which are hold in memory, that are only some KByte. On small memory servers this could be a disadvantage. You can disable this behaviour with digest_generation off in squid.conf This should be taken into the default squid.conf user-includefile to let the user decide to enable it on demand. More information about the cache-digests is found here: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/CacheDigests There has already been a discussion on forum for this: http://forum.ipfire.org/index.php?topic=7354.0 Yeah, I can live with that if we compile in the code and disable it by default in the configuration. People who need it can switch it on. Could you please provide a patch that enables the compile option and alters the configuration file? The best option would be to have a check box in the web user interface. Created attachment 117 [details]
