Squid memory is mostly used for things that are not caches. <https://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidMemory> And be careful that you are looking at *resident* size, not virtual memory or the areas the OS calls "cache" memory (which is not related to Squid). > cache deny all > cache_mem 0 MB > access_log none > > Assuming I need _absolutely_ no cache what-so-ever(to the point to > change compile flags to disable that, if needed), no store-to-disk > neither, i.e. no objects need to be cached at all.

The set of ./configure build options to disable for small Squid binaries can be found at <https://github.com/squid-cache/squid/blob/v4/test-suite/buildtests/layer-01-minimal.opts> There are some other options not listed there (or listed at the top with reasons stated) which can be disabled. However they or the replacement code requires OS-specific support. If your OS has that, you can shrink it a bit more. When you have a minimal build look at what the memory if being used for and tune further.
