Not all memory is accounted. But your difference seems a little high.
Hey, Henrik, thanks for the heads up. I have a strong suspicion that
this config line is responsible for our much increased memory use:
cache_replacement_policy heap GDSF
Previously we used the heap LFUDA policy instead, at which time 1150 MB
process size limit was enough to handle a 50 GB cache_dir + 256 MB
cache_mem. But now 1500 MB process size is not enough to handle exactly
500 MB cache_mem with heap GDSF. Af first sight a 350MB increase in
process size would be plenty to cover the 244MB increase of cache_mem.
But if you take our 4,5 million cached objects with GDSF into account
(as opposed to a little over 3 million with LFUDA) one can see why Squid
now requires more memory than expected. Am I right in this reasoning?
