Dear all,
To my surprise, I just know that squid at present can run on Windows platform. Hmm, I haven't noticed squid progress for quite a long time. Is there anyone ever compared the performance of squid running on linux vs squid running on Windows platform ?
Regards,

Squid runs on Windows from 2.3 version.
For some details, look here:

In the Squid 2.5 page, read carefully the Compatibility Notes and Known Limitations section.
Currently, the 2048 FD limitations is the major problem: for a safe usage you shouldn't have more than 100 - 200 users.
On the performance side, today I expect better performance on *nix systems.
