Re: [squid-users] problem with squid3.0-pre4

x86-64 Linux.

Errors are happening during normal run time, and seem to wait at
least 4-5hours and sometimes as long as a week. No where near the
data store limits as I've got 100Gb configured, and the cache_dir is
under 100Mb.

Beyond that, I'm not sure I could leave it running for a bit and see
if I could pull more info, if I know where to look.
