I recently installed squid (squid-2.5.STABLE13-transparent-snmp) from packages on openbsd 4.0 -release -stable. My squid only uses 29M.
15707 _squid 2 0 27M 29M sleep poll 12:38 0.98% squid This top 'snapshot' has been taken at a peak moment. We have a 10Mbit/s internet connection and when using squid, no slow performance. I do not use the cache option of squid (just wanna log everything for now). So it might not be that strange for Squid to take 90M. When you disable squid, do you still have poor performance? When you disable the cache, do you still have poor performance? What is your definition of poor performance and how did you establish a baseline?
