Dear Squid Users,
I get this occasionally with with NCSA auth followed by a restart.
What does it mean?

RHEL6 x64
Squid 3.2.0.7
A helper process died or shutdown. But Squid internal state indicates
there were none of that type of helper running.
Thanks Amos,
Is there a limit to the amount of requests helpers can service?
The bundled helpers don't use the concurrency protocol yet, so they can
handle 2 simultaneous requests each: one being worked on, and one queued
waiting.
I have:
auth_param basic children 20 startup=20 idle=2
When this happens, helpers are running and available.
Yes, 20 maximum. minimum of 20 loaded on startup. These can handled 40
simultaneous client requests.
The error is about a helper closing/dying/shutdown when there are none
running.
For example 20 helpers started, and 21 socket closed notices received by
Squid.
