[squid-users] Memory Problems

I'm running Squid 3.1.15 on a server with 24GB of RAM. The OS is SUSE Linix
11 SP1 64bit. If I change the cache_mem higher then 512, I get the below
results. If I leave it at 512, everything is normal. I tried 1024 MB and up
to 4096 MB with the same results below. Any ideas?
