You're welcome. Please note that the reuse mechanism is not perfect and
can still be improved. So do not hesitate to report any issue you find,
we definitely need real-world feedback like this. I cannot promise that
every issue will be fixed, but at least we need to consider them and see
what can be done.

i have http interception in place, using iptables/DNAT to redirect
traffic to haproxy and load balance to 2 squid instances. i was using
aggressive mode http-reuse and it seemed to provide better streaming
experience for roku/sling. after a period of time, the performance
degraded and the experience was worse than original state. buffering,
lag and pixelation are the symptoms. i did not try to use the always
mode, and turned http-reuse off for the interception i am doing. the
issue has cleared since.
while interception and transparent proxying seem to be problematic,
explicit proxying and internal http have both seen a marked improvement
in performance. no scientific collection of data has been done, but
page load times have been noticeably improved. i may move from
aggressive to always for these backends.
keep up the good work, and thanks for some really great software,
brendan
