i think that´s the size o cache_dir ...
i have 2 cache_dir, 25GB each..
and, squid use +- 20MB for each GB of cache_dir (64bit)
i´m using --enable-dlmalloc ... without this.. when squid reach
1200000 of VSZ .. it´s crash...

Henrik what do you think from these memory values?
[root@proxy root]# free -t
