Hi Squid users, >>> [Snip] >>> >>> I have not seen FIN_WAIT1 before, but often see FIN_WAIT like this when >>> Squid is receiving a lot of connections. >>> >>> I think its due to squid using sockets for short times (non-persistent >>> connections) and moving on. The system TCP timeouts are much longer. I think i've got something. My LVS seems to have very very low timeout. So, LVS timeout TCP session too soon and client FIN & ACK can't reach the correct squid box, which can't close TCP session properly. This morning i've raised LVS timeout, and for now, FIN_WAIT1 have gone away. I hope this will be durable. Now, i need to monitor other time to confirm this. Thank you. David.
