hi , i have made a test for squid withing 30 minutes and ive logged alot of things during working : 1st of all , the current server is 8 g ram and quad core cpu " 8 cores " here is squid performance and degredation with time : <http://squid-web-proxy-cache.1019090.n4.nabble.com/file/n4663169/237842408.png> as we see from graph , squid is fine as 1st starting and after some time degradation start untill it reach down !!!! also from grahp we note the cpu loading , not congested to specific cores , i see its fine . note to hint that during the squid running the cpus cores was fine and normal except free ram is getting decreasing ! @Alex , during to ur question , the cpu dissipation was jumping to cores during top and pressing 1 then c i monitored it and cpu dissipation is normal ! also , @Alex, ive disabled "named" service of my server and let squid look to 8.8.8.8 for dns resolving , i mean i dont want it to be makking problems . @Alex , about the "vary object loop" which i posted before , i found that when i define cache dir , i dont see this issue in logs , thats why in my squid.conf below i configured only 1 G for rock type and 1 drive. @Alex , ive reduced cache mem , and cache dir , and put mem pools off ,so that we dont face problems in memoery ,but not sure if what i did is fine or not. here is squid.conf file :

hint , the free memory before using squid is 1 g and after some time the free is about 200 M could this be the problem ??? i did my best to let squid far from memory problems . ========= currently i
