[squid-users] Cache-parent with several IPs and round-robin problem

I have a problem with Squid when having host with several IPs as
round-robin parent.

If one of the IPs doesn't respond, it makes Squid think that parent is
dead for couple seconds and then revived. This happens almost every minute.

Problem seems to be that Squid doesn't handle those IPs separately and
it confuses it. Squid seems to handle all IPs as "one" which is either
UP or DOWN.

I separated the IPs to own parents like if host X resolves to A, B, C
and D, I replaced parent X with four parents A, B, C and D. This works
fine, but some kind of enhancement to round-robin would be fine.

Best regards,
