It is one of the light ones. So if that were all that is going on I
would not be expecting a problem.

Your mention of intercepting traffic to port 3128 makes me wonder if the
netdata auto-detect is trying to use that port.
  If that is happening there would be some visible effects:
  A) if you have firewall protection DROP'ing direct connections to the
intercept port. That would show up exactly as SYN with no SYN+ACK on any
auto-detect probes the tool used to that port. (This is one reason I am
so vocal about people not using port 3128 to intercept).

  B) if you are missing that mandatory firewall protection, the tool may
be triggering forwarding loops. Which use many more FD than it should
(up to all of them) with the visible effects being clients not able to
connect around peak times and SYN being dropped when limits are hit
(either the loop limit, or interception port protection.
  If the tool is smart enough to detect the error state and move to
another port for a while that might explain the intermittent nature.

Connection from 127.0.0.1 (loopback interface) are not blocked. (DROPped)

Also, if it was due to DROP then it should not work from beginning but here it works for a while (few hours) and then suddenly starts blocking.

Also I grepped whole cache.log for word "descriptor", it showed me no error. Only line I saw is that 16384 descriptors are available (when squid starts)

I will try to reproduce the error when I get some time. Currently I have disabled netdata's squid module and things are stable.

Thank you very much for your response,

Amish.
