Squid worker processes use a lot of memory. Then fork() many helper processes. Each of which is allocated the same amount of virtual memory that the worker process was using for its much larger needs. The helper does not actually use that memory so it should not be a major problem, or even accessed. But the system records it anyway. Some OS do have problems with it. The dynamic helpers feature and concurrency channels workaround it by reducing the number of needed helpers and thus "virtual memory" used.
