This is a known problem. It was in this mailing list on 30/10/2000 already
and we're fighting with it for a long time already.
Seems that some people either deny or don't have this problem.
We've this problem on Solaris 2.6 (squid-2.3-STABLE4)
You can use this attached script. It's a hack but works for us (you'll have
to tweak it).
And, as far as I remember squid-2.2-STABLE5 didn't have this problem.
The problem is not that squid doesn't delete files, but, because squid
mistakenly thinks that it uses X space while it uses Y.
Also check squid-mailing list around 25/09/2000 for the discussion (Subject:
bug). Unfortunately no one has come with a solution yet.
