  "Enable forw/via database" :)

 The forw/via database stores a copy of every unique Via: and
 X-Forwarded-For: header which passes through Squid, along with a count
 of how many time it was seen. This gets reset/emptied on log rotate.

 The lists are viewable with the via_headers and forw_headers cache
 manager reports. Current squid do not use the DB for anything.
