Betreff:  Running two squid3 process, Why?

I am using squid3, After starting squid It creates two process

$sudo squid3
$ps -A

It displays something like......
                    .
                    .
 6325 ?        00:00:00 squid3
 6327 ?        00:00:25 squid3
 6328 ?        00:00:00 unlinkd
 6367 ?       .
                   .
                   .

Can anybody tell me why it has created two processes?



Well, from my looking at the sources years ago, one process is the parent, who does nothing but monitor the child, another process is the child, who does the actual http request handling. When child dies due to some exception, parent will re-launch another new child.

Jeff.

Correct. And the third one handles the disk deletions.
