Continuing to download a cachable response after its request is aborted is going to waste resources if the received response is not requested again. On the other hand, aborting an in-progress download may effectively waste (already spent) resources if the received cachable response is requested again. Such waste is especially noticeable when, for example, impatient users repeatedly request and then abort slow downloads. To balance these trade-offs when a request is aborted during response download, Squid may check quick_abort_* directives to decide whether to finish the retrieval: If the transfer has less than 'quick_abort_min' KB remaining, it will finish the retrieval. If the transfer has more than 'quick_abort_max' KB remaining, it will abort the retrieval. If more than 'quick_abort_pct' of the transfer has completed, it will finish the retrieval. If you do not want any retrieval to continue after the client has aborted, set both 'quick_abort_min' and 'quick_abort_max' to '0 KB'. If you want retrievals to always continue if they are being cached set 'quick_abort_min' to '-1 KB'. Many other conditions affect Squid decision to abort or continue download. For example, Squid continues to download responses that feed other requests but aborts responses with unknown body length. |
