What I know for sure is that there has been very many segmentation fault errors fixed since 2.5.STABLE2. See http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v2/2.5/bugs/ for a list of known bugs fixed after the 2.5.STABLE2 release. I would suspect you will find three or four important ones making it questionable if downgrading to 2.5.STABLE2 is a viable solution. I saw earlier in this thread that -O6 was used. Using any -O level above -O2 is generally not advisable as there very often lurks compiler bugs at those higher levels, and it is in addition not expected higher -O levels will give any better performance of Squid. Over the years there has been quite many reports about segmentation faults from people using too aggressive compiler optimizations, and it has most often been fixed by using a normal optimization level.
