The Squid instance is started in the morning and stopped at night. It is daily brought down by what I call "hundreds of HEAD request to itself". There's no fixed pattern for the problem. Sometimes Squid keep working OK with hundreds of those requests, sometime it just becomes very unresponsive. Here's what the request look like with my logformat: 09/Apr/2014:17:41:02] 192.168.0.2 TCP_MISS:DEFAULT_PARENT 504 "HEAD http://192.168.0.2:3128/ HTTP/1.0" Size:333 Ref:"-" Agent:"-" Squid's server IP is 192.168.0.2, so it's like the server itself requesting the proxy. There's nothing running on the same server that I know of that would access the proxy. Where a HEAD request like that could come from? Addional info: the size is always 333 during runtime, but when I do a restart, when Squid is stopping then I see much higher numbers, in the thousands first then quickly up until ~20000, then it stops and restarts and the pattern dissapears for a couple hours. Any idea of what could cause this to happen? Windows 7 running SQUID 2.7.STABLE8 cheers -nodje
