Thanks so much for the answers to my queries about squid.

I have a problem with the continuous increase in disk space usage on linux
where squid is hosted. Even having turned off the cache ("#cache_dir ufs
/var/spool/squid/ 1000 16 256").

I have to keep recreating virtualbox instances and deleting the old ones
frequently.

VMs starts at 7gb and in a few weeks grows to 10...20...30Gb.

Why does Squid need so much growing hard drive space and how to prevent it?


have you checked which files/directories use most of space?

du -kax / |sort -nr|head

repeat for every on-disk filesystem (e.g. if you have separate /var)
