In the course of troubleshooting an issue with Squid, I notice that when I
DO NOT use Squid, most HTTP content comes in 1434 byte packets. When I use
Squid, those same packets are now 1514 bytes and the "Do Not Fragment" bit
is flipped. Is this normal behavior for Squid? Can this be turned off?

I believe that I am dropping HTTP traffic that is over 1514 and is not
allowed to be fragmented.
