[squid-users] max request header size

hi all,
i was browsing through one of my cache.log files and noticed a message
saying that "the request header size" had been exceeded. Given that it was
set to the default of 10K and the conf file says that its usually 512 bytes
ish I wondered

1). Anyone else seeing these messages

2). Having just reduced the max size to 3K, there seems to be a lot of
entries in cache.log about request header sizes over 3k and 10 K. Is there
anyway to match the error message up with a particular request in the
access.log file.

3). What *is* a reasonable setting for request_header_max_size ? here it
appears that even 10 is occasionally too small.

TIA
Alex
