"Collapsed forwarding" was not set intentionally.

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.
