If not set (default) or set to zero, Squid will keep all memory it ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ can. That is, there will be no limit on the total amount of memory used for safe-keeping.
The description is obviously wrong here considering the current default..
Should read "If set to zero, ..." (fixed)
Also why default is changed from none to 5Mb ?
Because it in most configurations is nice if Squid gives back memory to the OS after a situation where it temporarily used a lot of some pooled item. This has happened many times in the past with temporary memory leaks and other similar problems, and can also happen in a few cases by design.
PS: And why phrase construction "if xxxxxx than yyyyyy " is chnaged to "if xxxxxxx yyyyyy" ?
For example,
If off the URLs for icons will always be absolute URLs including the proxy name and port.
Without "then" it is a bit unintelligibly
