Hi all, I am running squid 3.1.12 and I have noticed that if I connect to squid and make a request to itself while the box has "transparent" enabled on the port it causes squid to run out of file descriptors. So for example: $ telnet localhost 6045 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. GET http://localhost:6045 HTTP/1.0 I then see: $ sudo ls /proc/<pid of (squid)>/fd | wc -l 932 And: 2012/07/03 17:03:21| client_side.cc(3032) okToAccept: WARNING! Your cache is running out of filedescriptors 2012/07/03 17:03:21| WARNING: Forwarding loop detected for: GET / HTTP/1.1 Host: localhost.alba.local:6045 I noticed that the code has this comment in src/client_side_reply.cc: /// Deny loops for accelerator and interceptor. TODO: deny in all modes? if (r->flags.loopdetect && (http->flags.accel || http->flags.intercepted)) { Seems like either the answer to the TODO is yes or for this request we should have flags.intercepted set (not the first one request but the next one).
