Note that 130 req/sec mentioned earlier equates to almost 8K active sockets. So it is *very* likely this is one of the traffic bottlenecks in your proxy. When you increase the FD available you can expect to see higher and faster spikes in traffic req/sec going through Squid. This is normal and a Good Thing, the client browsers are getting faster service time and can place more requests to complex sites in those shorter duration peaks.

I would also ensure that persistent connections are enabled for both client and server connections. If you have them disabled your Squid will cause a lot of the machine network sockets to be stuck in TCP's 15min TIME_WAIT period and unusable to any process.

These two changes alone may fix your FB issue. Their uploader is a bit sensitive to connection speed as it re-codes whatever the upload is on the fly. If not you will likely benefit from also adding the HTTP/1.1 improvements available in 3.2 series, which allow a lot more automatic optimization on sites with traffic profiles like FB.

Thanks Amos,
My max FD is now 65535 and client_persistent_connections and server_persistent_connections are still at their default value "on". I have seen no improvement with Facebook so I'll try Squid 3.2.3.

We are now running with Squid 3.2.3 and 65535 file descriptors: same problem with Facebook. Are there special settings to use, to benefit from HTTP/1.1 improvements?
