Probably you are running short on filedescriptors. There is a threshold
of
50% used filedescriptors above which Squid will refuse to support
persistent connections. As you already know NTLM requires persistent
connections due to design error in the NTLM over HTTP protocol.
This threshold was introduced in 2.5.STABLE5:

Hi Henrik;
Thanks for the reply, I think you discovered my problem. Just one thing
did not make sense, my squid runs almost all of the time above 50% of used
file descriptors with no problem. So I went to the bug #571 history
(http://www.squid-cache.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=571) and discovered that
the actual threshold is 25% of available file descriptors or
ReservedFDs*2:
Right. My memory serves me wrong. 25% is obviously more balanced than 50%
here.
but again, it could do better for the NTLM authentication.
Regards
Henrik
