| | You need to set up proper log rotation calling "squid -k rotate".
| |

| |

| | all old stuff no longer in the cache.
|
| I did:
|
| /usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -f /usr/local/squid/etc/squid.conf -k rotate
|
| and now I have a file swap.state.last-clean
| of 0 bytes and the swap.state is still growing.

Forget what I wrote, the -k rotate was working well, I didn't notice
that swap.state passed from ~200MB to ~20MB.
