Not exactly (at least, not the "all ... swap" bit); our box is fairly
similarly configured but it doesn't consume all available swap space. The
main difference from your setup is that I've only allocated 128Mb RAM to
the memory hot cache (compared to your 256Mb); I've also used GNU malloc
instead of Solaris' malloc, but Squid ran quite happily for ages with
Solaris' malloc.
