I recommend sharing a log with 48+ hourly mgr:mem snapshots. These
snapshots help compare your leak with others we know about and may help
isolate some of the memory leaks:

FWIW, valgrind works as expected in my environment. If your Squid proxy
is killed by an assertion or crashes, even in a test environment, please
consider reporting that bug (after checking that it has not been
reported already, of course). If your test proxy is misconfigured, then
please fix the configuration before proceeding with tests.


Thank you,

Alex.
