The cache by default continues downloading aborted requests which are almost completed (less than 16 KB remaining). This may be undesirable on slow (e.g. SLIP) links and/or very busy caches. Impatient users may tie up file descriptors and bandwidth by repeatedly requesting and immediately aborting downloads. When the user aborts a request, Squid will check the quick_abort values to the amount of data transfered until then. If the transfer has less than 'quick_abort_min' KB remaining, it will finish the retrieval. If the transfer has more than 'quick_abort_max' KB remaining, it will abort the retrieval. If more than 'quick_abort_pct' of the transfer has completed, it will finish the retrieval. If you do not want any retrieval to continue after the client has aborted, set both 'quick_abort_min' and 'quick_abort_max' to '0 KB'. If you want retrievals to always continue if they are being cached set 'quick_abort_min' to '-1 KB'.  |
