I have an external ACL defined as:
external_acl_type preauth cache=0 children-max=1 concurrency=100 ttl=0
negative_ttl=0 %SRC %>{User-Agent} %URI %METHOD /usr/sbin/squid-preauth

It is well known that external ACLs with ttl=0 and cache=0 leak RAM: I had this problem and discovered the reason only recently, but Amos knows it since 2011:

https://www.mail-archive.com/squid-dev@squid-cache.org/msg14809.html

I recently opened a bug about this, that I will update now:

http://bugs.squid-cache.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4088

A workaround that we use and may be applicable in your case is to use ttl=1 cache=1.

Regards,
                     Bergonz
