guys,
I've been using squid for 5 years in my educational institution
(IM Telkom - Telkom Institute of Management)
but this is the first time i encounter this problem.
need your expertise.
I'm using HP Proliant ML110 G5 with 320GB of SATA disk.
I'm using squid 2.6 stable 16 (FreeBSD 6.3) with 100GB of squid-cache.
when the cache was not yet full, there's no problem whatsoever
but when the cache is full (but still 90% of the mountpoint),
squid is always busy validating its objects
and refusing all client connection.
this is part of file /usr/local/etc/squid/squid.conf

this is the capture when the squid refusing connection

UFS as the slowest IO process in Squid, is not the best for large
caches. Since you are on FreeBSD try diskd instead. No change of cache
is needed to alter ufs->diskd as the storage manager type.
Average HTTP object size these days is between 64KB and 128 KB. Your max
in-memory size of 8KB is causing a lot of objects to be disk-saved
without need.
Also check the garbage collection range you have set:
