Doh. Sorry its been so long I had forgotten one detail ...

Squid AUFS starts with a relatively short I/O queue length (8 entries)
and auto-grows it as needed by doubling the limit and displaying the
congestion message. On any busy proxy this can be seen for a while after
startup, then possibly during the first traffic peak after that. It is
not a problem unless it keeps growing indefinitely or appears suddenly
without a matching traffic spike (possible sign of disk failure).

I'm applying a patch to raise the baseline queue length from 8 to 8K,
and reporting in each message what the limit was changed to. That should
get rid of a dozen entries in your logs, and help show whats going on in
the remainder.
