The first step in debugging any problem like this is to upgrade to the
latest version and see if it has been resolved.
The current latest is Squid-3.3.3.

Hi,
you can activate the full debug
launch
squid -k debug
with the service running, and check what comes in the cache.log.
squid -k parse will audit your config file. Look for WARNING in the
output of this command.
the cachemanager can be usefull to see the actual activity of your squid :
squidclient localhost mgr:5min
gives you the last 5 min stats. (see if the n° of req/s is coherent
with what you expect )
Bonne chance

Hello,
We have a Squid 3.1.23 running on a FreeBSD 8.3 (amd64)
The proxy is used to handle web access for ~2500 workstations and in pure proxy/filter (squidGaurd) mode with no cache (all disk caching is disabled)
It's not a tranparent/intercepting proxy, just a plain explicit proxy mode.
What we see, is that the squid process is using 100% of CPU (userland CPU usage, not kernel) all the time. Even in late night when the whole traffic is very minimalistic.
What I'm looking for is some advice on how to track down what is causing this CPU misbehaviour. Maybe it's some stupid config option not suitable for this kind of setup, maybe a bug etc.
What would be the tools/methodology that I can use to profile the running process.
Any help/suggestion would be really appreciated.
