Yeah, that's the case in my situation. w/ 4GB on 64bit, squid starts
erroring when it hit the 3.5G mark. Upgrade to 6G and the problem
goes away. I guess the solution for now is to thow more servers into
the pool. We have alot of sun netra x1s (400mhz processor, 1G of
ram, 2 hdd). Is COSS good enough for production use? The ide
controller on those netras is not very fast; COSS is supposed to have
lighter disk I/O.
