I didn't say the server did any processing which makes a difference in
the response. I said it used the information for statistics and kickback
reasons.

True.

In accelerator setups Squid is the authorative server, and how it finds
it's content is a business to you, nobody else.

Redirectors for this purpose does it's job quite well in accelerator
mode as well. But you may want the overlapping request support available
in squid-3 or as patch to 2.5 (part of the cerberian patch)
