Please consider creating a Bugzilla entry and posting the corresponding backtrace there: https://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/BugReporting#crashes_and_core_dumps > ERROR: Collapsed forwarding queue overflow for kid1 at 1024 items This can be an expected side effect of a kid restart or a bug. If these errors go away shortly after the kid, then they are expected -- other kids are trying to communicate with a dead/restarting kid and complain when they cannot. Squid handling of kid restarts is very primitive. Quality improvements are welcome. > This one seems to be impossible for us to track down.

The message text is misleading because it is outdated. That queue was originally used exclusively for collapsed forwarding needs, but it is now used for other essential purposes as well -- cachable traffic should be using the transients queue now. > * Recompiling squid with the value raised to 4096. Same message with > the new value. If the overflow is related to kid crashes, then raising the limit like that may not help on a busy proxy -- the queue will just overflow a few seconds later. The solution is to fix those crashes. If the overflow occurs without crashes, then there may be a bug somewhere or your Squids are blocking/stalling for some reason. > * Disabling the "cache_dir rock".
