Oh. Nope
This is the testing process:

Installed Ubuntu12.04---------create SNAPSHOT_1----------install
3.1.19-----------put traffic(150Mbps)==30%CPU without any drop in bandwidth
graph
Moving back to SNAPSHOT_1---------install 3.3.8----------- put
traffic(150Mbps)==100%CPU with sudden drop in bandwidth graph
BTW I am not using any cache_dir. I just use memory swap...

It is now clear for me that 3.3.8 cannot cope with the traffic due to:
1-my wrong configuration 2-my wrong compilation 3-OR some problems
in squid
I am madly eager to solve the problem...

Um. Are you swapping between versions and using the same cache_dir?

3.3 does an automatic upgrade of the swap.state file when its started with
one created by 3.1. That involves a lot of CPU scanning the disk files for a
while.
