Hi, I don't know how to handle memory for squid. Squid automatically breaks down itself and restarts: In my squid.conf I set: url_rewrite_children 120 startup=30 idle=100 concurrency=0 max_filedesc 7168 cache_swap_low 60 cache_swap_high 80 I notice that just one pending requests queued: 2011/06/09 11:00:17| WARNING: All redirector processes are busy. 2011/06/09 11:00:17| WARNING: 1 pending requests queued and follow is more details of cache.log: 2011/06/09 11:00:16| WARNING: Cannot run '/opt/squid-3.1.10/urlrewriter_new.pl' process. 2011/06/09 11:00:16| ipcCreate: fork: (12) Cannot allocate memory 2011/06/09 11:00:16| WARNING: Cannot run '/opt/squid-3.1.10/urlrewriter_new.pl' process. 2011/06/09 11:00:16| ipcCreate: fork: (12) Cannot allocate memory 2011/06/09 11:00:16| WARNING: Cannot run '/opt/squid-3.1.10/urlrewriter_new.pl' process. 2011/06/09 11:00:16| ipcCreate: fork: (12) Cannot allocate memory 2011/06/09 11:00:16| WARNING: Cannot run '/opt/squid-3.1.10/urlrewriter_new.pl' process. 2011/06/09 11:00:17| WARNING: All redirector processes are busy. 2011/06/09 11:00:17| WARNING: 1 pending requests queued 2011/06/09 11:00:17| storeDirWriteCleanLogs: Starting... 2011/06/09 11:00:17| WARNING: Closing open FD 177 2011/06/09 11:00:17| Finished.
