[squid-users] Slow read for ICAP REQMOD body

[David Smith]

Thanks Alex.

I'd much rather not write my own but for *reasons* I need an implementation that runs on .NET and I couldn't find one.
I only need a pretty small subset of the protocol.

Both those bugs are for squid >= 3.5. I'm on 3.3.8

Perhaps I should try a more recent version.

If you are not too far along down this path, consider writing an adapter for one of the existing ICAP servers and/or eCAP. ICAP is far more complex than it seems, and, in most cases, reinventing that [complex] wheel is a bad idea. I am a biased ICAP server seller, and your YMMV, but I have seen too many folks suffer through such projects to resist commenting.

Could it be Squid bug 4353?
