As long as you shut down Squid in a controlled manner there should be no
problem from this as Squid rewrites the swap.state file on shutdown.. but
rotating the swap.stae file is a bad idea because if the file is
incomplete when Squid starts then Squid will have a very poor view of what
is in the cache directory and it can then take days before Squid has
reclaimed the forgotten cache space.. (there is a low prio background
garbage cleaner removing "forgotten" stuff from the cache directories to
deal with mishaps like this..)
