Before I ran configure, I did ulimit -HSn 8192, and I noticed that while configuring it said "Checking File Descriptors... 8192". I even double-checked autoconf.h and saw #define SQUID_MAXFD 8192. I thought everything was good, even ran a "ulimit -n" right before starting squid and saw 8192! So I start her up, and in cache.log I see... 2006/02/22 19:05:08| Starting Squid Cache version 2.5.STABLE12 for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu... 2006/02/22 19:05:08| Process ID 3657 2006/02/22 19:05:08| With 1024 file descriptors available Arggghh. Can anyone help me out? This is on Fedora Core 4 64-bit Thanks, sigh - Gregori
