It will be a clean "reconfigure" though. The PID will stay the same and if you've reniced the parent "squid" process, all children will restart with the same niceness as the parent. My squid boxes run with squid+children niced to -5 (to make sure squid gets priority over webalizer, apache and other fru-fru that mangelment want running on them to audit users' activities). or as Joost suggested: sbin/squid -k reconfigure Henrik: is there a major difference between sending a HUP signal or using "-k reconfigure" ???
