Hi Kris

Are you running iptables?
If so, is the conntrack table overflowing?

I'm not sure the above is going to give you good results.

Enabling digest would save a lot of ICP traffic / lookups

As pointed out by Chris, "round-robin" option is used with parent selection
in the absence of ICP. But in your case you are using peers with ICP.

If you are trying to prevent overlapping disk objects between the siblings
then I reckon your syntax should just be something like this :

cache_peer 10.10.10.1x sibling 3128 3130 proxy-only
