No. I let the broken Squid run for a few days, waiting for someone helping us diagnosing the problem but as I didn't have any answer, we restarted Squid as the service was really degraded. It solved the problem and we haven't reproduced it for now. FYI, we don't have a lot of regexp rules (a few refresh patterns and around 20 user-agents acls). I tried to oprofile the production Squid when we got the problem but didn't succeed in it. If someone has a good oprofile tutorial, I'm more than interested as I didn't find anything useful yet. Be sure I'll keep the list informed if I have some news about the problem. -- Guillaume
