afaik it's ~72/194

you must decrease the memory a big. Let's say your squid can use up to 3GB
of memory when it's 32 bit (4GB of address space minus usually 1GB of
reserved area) vs. 5.5GB when it's 64 bit (6gb of RAM minus some OS usage).

since the 72/104, it's 44739242 vs. 56784423 objects metadata.

what? that 64bit squid has bigger memory usage? It's the price of higher
limits.
