Nothing except
comm_accept: FD 12: (53) Software caused connection abort
1-5 times per second.
I don't think problem is with disks: diskd processes use 1% CPU, while squid
process itself - 99-100%. And as CPU usage grows, visual disks activity
reduces.
Part of my squid.conf and system maxfiles:

cache_mem 100 MB
maximum_object_size 8096 KB
maximum_object_size_in_memory 24 KB
cache_dir diskd /cache1/squid 31000 38 256
cache_dir diskd /cache2/squid 31000 38 256

proxy# sysctl -a | grep maxfiles
kern.maxfiles: 4136
kern.maxfilesperproc: 3722

P.S. Maybe somebody knows where can I read about optimal squid&FreeBSD
configuration for such scale?
