It is entirely possible though if you are intercepting the clients traffic, have a browser doing "Happy Eyeballs", lots of plugins and/or tabs being started, and loading detailed pages like Facebook or CNN. The connection numbers involved there can multiply up to big values. > Is there any way to check what is going on? debug_options 11,2 in squid.conf will log the HTTP messages flows as they arrive. That might give hints. Check for Connection:keep-alive vs Connection:close on the mesages between Squid and the browser/client.
