Thanks for the tip . It has a core i3 cpu so it has 4 cores . Unfortunately
squid does not load fine across all cores specially in older versions like
mine v 3.1 . Multi instance has its  own complexity and headaches . i am
trying to have clean design to be away from those problems . It was very
useful if squid could do the refresh_pattern jobs by other cores . or some
trick like that .
