Re: squid using 95% cpu with no load

It is squid-2.2.5.STABLE4 on RedHat linux (kernel 2.2.12)
on an alpha (Multia).

When I recompile without cache-digest, the CPU usage drops
back down to a low level.

In all fairness I should mention I have been having a problem with
floating point functions (like floor()) since installing a new kernel.
I edited the squid code to change floor() to double -> int casts.
