Ok. Bear with me, this difference wasn't clear to me.
   So you mean the squid posix AIO code (which would interface with the
FreeBSD aio module) is naive? Therefore use the Squid thread-pools based
AIO instead (which will not use the FreeBSD aio module at all)?

That's strange, as the config.log that the port made has USE_AUFSOPS=1 in
it. Therefore I'm not using Squid thread-pools based AIO?
   Is there a specific function to look for in the binary that will
determine which AIO method it is using i.e.

# nm `which squid` | grep <function>

or another method to determine it?
