[squid-users] Squid problem regarding memory usage

Im running a squid server with amd athlon xp 2500+,
512MB of RAM and a 40GB harddisk. I allocated 20MB for
cache_mem and 6GB for a single cache_dir. Firstly,the
server is working great and the performance is good.
However, lately, the performance seems to drop. Users
complaining about slow web access. Other apps such as
chatting services runs great but not web browsing.
Then i did look into cachemgr and this is what shown
under General Runtime Information :-

Memory usage for squid via mallinfo():
Total space in arena: 15752 KB
...
...
Total in use: 15994 KB 99%
Total free: 89 KB 1%
Total size: 16084 KB

Is it normal to have total_in_use size bigger than
Total_Space_In_Arena ?? I`d really appreciate if
there's any reply regarding this question.Thanks a
lot!

Brian
