Hello squid-users, My squid box has 4GB memory, and I can see (with MRTG) that no more than 1,6 GB are occupied. Today I thought it would be nice to give some more place to cache_mem, so I have increased it from 100 to 400MB. A few hours later squid had died (and restarted, thanks squid) twice with the message "FATAL: xmalloc: Unable to allocate 65535 bytes!" According to the FAQ it could be a system size limit, but I can't see it: $ ulimit -aH core file size (blocks, -c) unlimited data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited file size (blocks, -f) unlimited max locked memory (kbytes, -l) unlimited max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited open files (-n) 1024 pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8 stack size (kbytes, -s) unlimited cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited max user processes (-u) 7168 virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited > ~squid/sbin/squid -v Squid Cache: Version 2.5.STABLE12-20060109 configure options: --prefix=/usr/local/squid-2.5.STABLE12-20060109 --enable-dlmalloc --enable-storeio=diskd,ufs,aufs,null --enable-snmp --with-large-files --disable-hostname-checks --enable-underscores --enable-basic-auth-helpers=LDAP --with-maxfd=8192 OS: Linux Debian Woody Can you help, thank you. -- _________________________________________________________________ Magali BERNARD - CRITeR - Université Jean Monnet de Saint-Etienne 23 rue du Dr Paul Michelon - 42023 St-Etienne Cedex 2 - FRANCE Tel: 04.77.48.50.62 -- ______________________________________________________________________ Magali BERNARD - Centre de Ressources Informatiques Télécom et Réseaux Université Jean Monnet de Saint-Étienne - FRANCE A: Yes. >Q: Are you sure? >>A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>>Q: Why is top posting annoying in email?
