Hi everyone, We're running Squid 3.1.1 on a virtual Ubuntu x64 server sitting on a fiber LUN. It's been up for a couple of months without issue any issues until recently. Over the past week or so I've had users calling in to report that downloading files from the internet has been very slow. They'll start out with a fast download speed, but it will quickly go down to about 5kb/sec. If I circumvent the proxy server and connect to these sites directly, the download goes right through no problem. I've tried restarting the Squid service with no luck. Any suggestions? Thanks Jack
You may want to check the FD usage and restart Squid to see if it resolves the issue. 3.1 has a known slow leak under some obscure circumstances we have not managed to track down yet.
