Re: accelerator and squid-2.2.STABLE5.ignore_host_header.patch

Hi,
    I've got a farm of squid servers that are accelerating a farm of apache web
servers. We are in the process of setting up the Apache servers as Virtual
hosts and I'd like to pass the Host: header to the Apache servers.
    When I applied the below patch to squid 2.2 or the one that Henrik
Nordstrom supplied for squid 2.3 I see a _very_ noticible slowdown. Is it
because of the need to lookup Config.Accel.host for each request? Any other way
to accomplish this?
Thanks!
