Re: Solaris x86 and Squid

Mark,

        I use gnumalloc and I see no memory leaks with squid. I am not
using Solaris nor x86 architecture. When you say "memory leak" what do
you mean?? Because squid will grow in memory up to approx. 3 times the
size set in "cache_mem", are you aware of this fact??

Thanks,
