| 40 | +</I>><i> I was using Apache Trafficserver before switching to Squid because at the time it didn't have a certain feature. Otherwise it worked fine. Worked better in fact, as it didn't have a 3 second startup delay, require patching in order to enable fast exit/restart behavior, didn't flip out if the internet connection momentarily went down, etc. |

| 42 | +</I>><i> Squid on the other hand is the most irritating, fiddly POS, just like most other crapware in the Linux world is, starting with the kernel itself. (There is a reason Linus refused to take charge over the whole Linux ecosystem--because he has no clue how to design a proper user interface. See git, the kernel menuconfig, etc.) |
| 43 | +</I>><i> |
| 44 | +</I>><i> Just went to start up Squid again for the first time im a while, and guess what, now the POS is giving "permission denied" trying to open the pthread library. Funny how no other application on the entire system has a problem with this. |

| 46 | +I'm sorry your experience is so bad. Generally, in the open source |
| 47 | +world, a common reaction is to contribute code to make things better, |
| 48 | +if one has the time. That's how I got involved in Squid development, |
| 49 | +for instance |
| 50 | +Unfortunately there's not much information provided here to understand |
| 51 | +what may be happening and try to help you. For what it's worth no one |
| 52 | +else ever reported this as a problem. |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +><i> I sincerely regret the time I invested in tweaking and adjusting this Squid configuration. Should I spend hours trying to figuring out this latest idiotic bug, or just go back to Trafficserver? I think you know the answer. Goodbye Squid, and good riddance. |
| 55 | +</I> |
| 56 | +I sincerely wish you will find something that works well for you. Good |
| 57 | +luck with your search! |
