Squid offers high performance proxy caching for Web         
clients, It supports FTP, Gopher, and HTTP requests. 
The cache software, available only in source, is 
more than an order of magnitude faster than the CERN 
httpd and other popular Internet caches, because it 
never needs to fork (except for FTP), is implemented 
with non-blocking I/O, keeps meta data and hot 
objects in VM, caches DNS lookups. Squid caches can         
be arranged hierarchically for an improvement in 
response times and a reduction in bandwith usage. 
Squid runs on all popular Unix platforms.

I'm glad to present you new version of Squid - 2.2 
STABLE 2 it is Beta 1, but I consider it to be more 
stable than any others. New Squid features many core 
bug-corrections and also has improved speed. Beta 1 
has all OS/2 features and bug corrections and 
support all Squid 2.1 external modules like 
authenticator or Redirector. It can be found              
on http://www.os2.spb.ru/technology/squid. After 
little testing I will also release version with 
DELAY_POOLS and SNMP. Currenly Squid has 
HTTP_VIOLATIONS, HTCP, CACHE_DIGEST and others.
