So dont upgrade to 2.3S2, it's not that stable at all, especially with async IO.
I'm looking to the WCCP backport you seem to use with 2.2STABLE5, could you
provide me a pointer?
(I've tried to run 2.3S1 just because of the WCCP code, but was unable
to find any URL or pointer to the WCCP backport for 2.2)

Hmm wait for 2.4 and the news disk IO API beeing developped, interesting
scheme (kind of cycling buffer like in INN 2.2) for storing cached object
will maybe see the light..

I've tried and replaced it with 2.2S5 after 3 or 4 core dump :)

Kind regards.
