I have set workers 8 just recently; but the disk full error had definitely been occuring before.

I was not aware of that - i can de-activate the workers 8 setting again.
"Collapsed forwarding" was not set intentionally. This error seems to occur when the disk is
really full and squid is restarted.

When there is no traffic squid seems to cleaning up well enough: over night (no traffic)
disk usage went down to 30GB (now it's at 50GB again)

There was another error i just fixed:
> FATAL: Failed to open swap log /mnt/cache/squid/swap.state.new
Not a permissions or diskspace problem, caused by workers 8.
I have deactivated workers 8 and this error went away.

THX for your input!
