Hello,

I have a problem with Squid-2.2.STABLE2 on FreeBSD 2.2.6. (Pentium100 / 64M
/ 2G SCSI disk)

Sometimes I get the message in /var/log/messages: "Out of mbuf clusters -
increase maxusers!"
I've increase maxusers to 512 (maximum possible number).
But at July 8 I have following line in /var/log/messages:

Jun 8 16:18:46 mink /kernel: Out of mbuf clusters - increase maxusers!

and computer restarts automatically.

After computer's start up squid try to rebuild cache. Three days (!) past -
Squid's still rebuilding cache...

What is in cache.log (look at the date!):
