cache log write errors?

I have configured my cache_dir to occupy 950 Mbytes (the partition is
a little bigger 1.1G)

when the disk gets full (about 95-99%)!! occupying 1017Mbytes !!
i see write errors on the cache log going like this:

28) No space left on device

"CANNOT RESTART...............??!(my comment)"

But never comes up again.....
Is there something i am missing (there must be...:) )
I told it to use 950 and it uses everything it finds (leading to it's destruction..!!!!!!!)
I must say that the request rate is very big...(~80 req/sec...)

Any help valuable

thanks
