storeSwapInStart should recover after a while.. Each time it encounters
a swapin failure it should forget about that particular object.

If the directory isn't writeable (no permission, not a directory, out of
inodes, ...), then you may see storeSwapOutStart errors. I don't think
Squid recovers automatically in this situation and I beleive this is
your problem... storeSwapInStart shows the URL, not the swap file name,
storeSwapOutStart shows the swap file name.
