As reflected in docs on www.freebsd.org and, of course, in your own set, 
you can play with MAX_FDSETSIZE which is in /sys/sys/types.h. After that,
recompile (at least, probably whole make world would be ok) kernel, squid
and here you go. Don't forget about login.conf(5) limits..

This is non-squid related, but guys, maybe we should have it in the FAQ?
