Hi!

We have been using Squid 2.5 in production as of pre10 on two proxy
servers.
Each proxy gets about 2500000 http requests / day and about 150000 icp.

It has been stable as a rock until today when it died with this message:
FATAL: xcalloc: Unable to allocate 1 blocks of 4104 bytes!
Squid Cache (Version 2.5.PRE12-20020908): Terminated abnormally.
CPU Usage: 9192.902 seconds = 5885.603 user + 3307.299 sys
Maximum Resident Size: 747756 KB
Page faults with physical i/o: 6896
2002/09/16 05:25:52| storeDirWriteCleanLogs: Starting...
2002/09/16 05:25:55| Starting Squid Cache version 2.5.PRE12-20020908 for
i386-unknown-freebsd4.6.2...

The box has 1Gb memory and cache_mem is 341Mb, squid did not leave a
core file.

Any ideas?

RELEASE Squid-2.5.PRE13 - Help us BETA TEST!

Some days ago Squid-2.5.PRE13 was released. This will hopefully be the
last 2.5.PRE release before the Squid-2.5.STABLE1 release.

This message is a call for public beta testing of Squid-2.5. If you
can please test out the Squid-2.5 version under controlled forms to
familiarize you with the new release.

Note that Squid-2.5.PRE13 is a PRE-release, and as such we do not
recommend this release to be used in production environments.

The Squid-2.5 PRE-release can be found from our web or ftp sites, or
any of the mirrors.

 HTTP: <URL:http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v2/2.5/>
 FTP: <URL:ftp://ftp.squid-cache.org/pub/squid-2/DEVEL/>
 Mirrors: <URL:http://www.squid-cache.org/Mirrors/>

RELEASE 2.5.STABLE1

The current plan is to release 2.5.STABLE1 in about 1 weeks time
unless there is critical errors found in the 2.5.PRE13 release. A
long time awaited release after almost 2 years of coding and almost a
year of PRE-releases.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED - Squid FAQ and Squid Users Guide

This message is also a call for volunteers for updating the Squid FAQ
and Squid Users Guide with information relevant for Squid-2.5. Both
documents are in great need of updates. If you are interested in
helping out with this task please write to squid-dev@squid-cache.org.
