Hi All,
Squid memory usage grows beyond allocate cache_mem size of 8 GB. Total
physical memory available on machine is 20 GB.
Does that mean there is memory leak and I should replace malloc
library and compile squid ?
cache_mem is the size of the in-memory object cache squid uses for very
popular objects.
Squid itself uses memory for many other things which make the total larger.
