Well, hmm, it's a good question:

	CPU Usage:	4.06%

File descriptor usage for squid:
	Maximum number of file descriptors:   11095
	Largest file desc currently in use:    324
	Number of file desc currently in use:  309
	Files queued for open:                   0
	Available number of file descriptors: 10786
	Reserved number of file descriptors:   100

Internal Data Structures:
	155377 StoreEntries
	155377 StoreEntries with MemObjects

	     0 on-disk objects


"Mean Object Size" is 0.00 KB, which must be a display error. :)

If we divide "Storage Mem size" of 4194536 KB by 155377 "StoreEntries
with MemObjects" then that would suggest mean object size of about 27
KB, which intuitively sounds reasonable.

If there is really another 27 KB of metadata per object, then what can
we do to reduce the problems with fork()ing new URL rewriters?  As it
is we have to double memory the requirements (again) in order to avoid
once-a-day downtime due to log rotation.

Would we be better off to declare a large memfs and have squid use it
as "disk" storage?

Thanks!
