Ok, but what about cache_peer's option : "weighted-round-robin"?

http://www1.at.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.0/cfgman/cache_peer.html

Can it be used in surrogate mode to define the weight of defined origin
server?

Something like?

http_port 80 defaultsite=subdom.somedomain.com vhost

cache_peer php-01 parent 80 0 no-query no-digest originserver login=PASS
name=php-pool weighted-round-robin=25
cache_peer php-03 parent 80 0 no-query no-digest originserver login=PASS
name=php-pool weighted-round-robin=25
cache_peer php-04 parent 80 0 no-query no-digest originserver login=PASS
name=php-pool weighted-round-robin=40
cache_peer php-05 parent 80 0 no-query no-digest originserver login=PASS
name=php-pool weighted-round-robin=10

Regards,
Sylvain.
