I'd like to add a note to my previous message.I set the following values, and I'll see what happens: * hard nofile 65535 * soft nofile 16384 ("hard" being a top limit a non-root process cannot exceed) So I take it that Squid will start with a default of 16384, but will be able to increase up to 65535 if it needs to.
Squid starts with a fixed amount, either the limit you built it with or the max_filedescriptors config directive value. It will auto-shrink if those limits are too large for the system/ulimit settings, but will not auto-grow beyond.
By the way, restarting squid from the same shell (ssh) does not apply the new values. I had to re-log into the system. There's probably a ulimit command line option to apply the values without logging out.
"ulimit -n ..." should do it. Amos _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@lists.squid-cache.org http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
