Hello, In a 3.1.6 squid installation on a CentOS 5.5 x86 host with customized kernel, top reports VERT 19.8g, and RES 14g while mgr:mem reports Total Allocated 7.25g (96.4% of which is mem_node) high 7.27g, In Use 7.25g %alloc 99.957 In squid.conf, the following is explicitly configured(mem_pool is default): cache_mem 7168 MB maximum_object_size 51200 KB maximum_object_size_in_memory 1024 KB Probably memory leak. However, it is not reliably reproducible. Anyway, a restart will return memory to OS.
see question 4 of the memory FAQ: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidMemory
Additionally, mgr reports negative values:
Bit of 32-bit signed wrap in the display. Annoying but nothing to worry overly much about. It's been fixed in later releases.
