Hi Amos,
The series of 9 trunk patches posted by Dmitry yesterday (Subject:
"Make Rock work w/o SMP") make Rock Store build and work using Blocking
disk I/O when necessary. Even shared memory support is no longer
required to use Rock store in a non-SMP mode. Bugs notwithstanding, they
should address your concerns raised above. Please yell if we missing
something.
The same patches may fix Squid bug 3361 (at least).
HTH,
Alex.
