It's seems that noone on this list have a clue about this. But does anyone know where you can turn to get some answers? Are there other resources? Are there consultants that are experts in Squid? Yes we can pay for some support. I guess this is the downside of Open Source...
Getting desperate... Are using Squid in production...

Hi all!
Have seen in the FAQ and also in the mailarchives that running out of filedescriptors is not very uncommon. But I haven't seen anyone writing about this issue in Mac OSX Server.
We run Squid as a http-accelerator and when our webserver is very busy, Squid keeps saying:
WARNING! Your cache is running out of filedescriptors
In Mac OS X Server when you run the command sysctl -a you see that: kern.maxfiles = 32768
That is also recognized by Squid when you ./configure: checking Maximum number of filedescriptors we can open... 32768
But the funny thing, is that when you start Squid, you see in the cache-log:
With 1024 file descriptors available
So, the problem here seems that Squid "forgets" that it has 32768 filedescriptors when running...
Can anyone advise?
Regards, Micke Moggia
