Public bug reported: Binary package hint: squid
After upgrading to lucid, squid ignores the setting of SQUID_MAXFD in /etc/default/squid and always uses 1024 file descriptors, which is too few for a busy proxy. The old /etc/init.d/squid used to contain: maxfds () { [ -n "$SQUID_MAXFD" ] || return [ -f /proc/sys/fs/file-max ] || return 0 global_file_max=`cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max` minimal_file_max=$(($SQUID_MAXFD + 4096)) if [ "$global_file_max" -lt $minimal_file_max ] then echo $minimal_file_max > /proc/sys/fs/file-max fi ulimit -n $SQUID_MAXFD } Could we have it back in the new /etc/init/squid.conf? ** Affects: squid (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Squid no longer uses $SQUID_MAXFD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/580590 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to squid in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
