Then install a older GCC, SuSe or FreeBSD version on the benchmark server or wait for the next polygraph release. For details on Polygraph release availability see the polygraph web site. Personally I would recommend using the TMF version of FreeBSD for polygraph as all documentation on how to set up correct polygraph benches is based on FreeBSD and it is not trivial to translate networking tweaks etc to Linux, and the TMF version of FreeBSD is custom tailored for polygraph.. > Any other squid benchmarking software to recommend?

If your goal is to benchmark Squid as a cache proxy there is not really any good alternative to polygraph, the other tools are too specific and often oriented in testing web server loads which is significantly different.
