| Tag Name | quick_abort_min quick_abort_max quick_abort_pct |
| Usage | quick_abort_min (KB) quick_abort_max (KB) quick_abort_pct (percent) |
Description
The cache can be configured to continue downloading aborted requests. This may be undesirable on slow (e.g. SLIP) links and/or very busy caches. Impatient users may tie up file descriptors and bandwidth by repeatedly requesting and immediately aborting downloads.
When the user aborts a request, Squid will check the quick_abort values to the amount of data transferred until then.
If the transfer has less than ‘quick_abort_min’ KB remaining, it will finish the retrieval. Setting ‘quick_abort_min’ to –1 will disable the quick_abort feature.
If the transfer has more than ‘quick_abort_max’ KB remaining, it will abort the retrieval.
If more than ‘quick_abort_pct’ of the transfer has completed, it will finish the retrieval.
| Default | quick_abort_min 16 KB quick_abort_max 16 KB quick_abort_pct 95 |
Caution
This may be undesirable on slow (e.g. SLIP) links and/or very busy caches.
