RE: [squid-users] Squid-3 / TProxy v4.1

Although the TProxy I am currently using is not ICMP aware, I am using it in a production environment across the midwest of the US. It is working very well. I am using CentOS 5.2 x86_64 on custom built Intel Core 2 Duo machines (single CPU, 2 cores) with 3GB RAM. I have 20 of these boxes and they each serve about 75 to 150 clients behind them. I am using Cisco 2811 routers for WCCP redirection.
 
I will soon start working on a revised tutorial for setup of CentOS 5.2 x86_64, Squid, and TProxy to reflect the newer builds of Squid and TProxy. All though the concepts having changed, I haved learned some lessons from my production deployments that I would like to pass into the Squid community.

IIRC Nicholas Ritter was using it in Production for the final round of
testing.

Both are technically still in beta. The tproxy won't be out formally
until kernel 2.6.28. But yes, we who worked on it believe they are
finished and usable. Even if not proven by years and masses of usage.
