Hi,

recently my squid died with this error:

Fatal: xmalloc: unable to allocate 65535 bytes

the following lines were in cache.log:
CPU usage: user 12732 sys 18011
Maximum resident size 0kb
page faults with physical i/o 652561
memory usage for squid via mallinfo
total space in arena: 216201
ordinary blocks: 197335
small blocks: 0k
holding blocks: 1304k
free small blocks: 0k
free ordinary blocks: 18865k
total in use: 198639k 92%
total free: 18865k 9%

I canīt make anything of this, but i think squid runs out of memory, but
why?

Lars
