Package: squid3
Version: 3.0.STABLE8-1
Severity: minor


The config option --enable-poll is listed as deprecated, since squid3 is said to do some fancy things to determine the best I/O method. I did a test compile w/o the option, and according to powertop it wakes up the CPU 10-20 times less per second, which relates to about 15% CPU power saving on that machine. I could not notice any performance issue removing the option. However, heavy load tests should be done to verify this.
