Wow. What a rookie I've turned out to be. I hadn't even considered
that being the reason for Squid shutting off. Thankfully I haven't hit
that in a very long time. You are correct, both Squids were affected by
their access.log file being 2147483647 (2^31 -1) bytes in size.
Now I'm off to look at the FAQs, etc, on perhaps compiling Squid w/
large-file-access..
Thanks, Henrik, you always come through.

Recently I had two of our four Squid [1] proxy servers die. What
appears to have happened is a user was making requests to the proxy so
quickly, that it died with the following message.
FATAL: logfileWrite: /var/log/squid/access.log: (11) Resource
temporarily unavailable
A quite common cause is access.log reaching the magic 2GB barrier of
32-bit applications..
