Hi Duane,

Well, having rebuilt with a clean partition, I'm back at the same
situation.

df shows (kb then inode):

/dev/hda5 247871 216025 31846 87% /usr/squid/cache
/dev/hda5 64000 13770 50230 22% /usr/squid/cache

with a 150Mb cache setup in squid.conf.

Thus, it would appear that squid isn't freeing objects quickly enough
at the (very) low rate of hits it is receiving here currently. Can you
point me towards the right bits of the code to tweak this update rate?

Cheers,

Mark
