Re: [squid-users] Squid mem issue ?

Please see the Squid FAQ on memory usage.

Your box has plenty of free memory assuming the display is in MB.. 1.3
GB of free memory. And based on the low amount of used memory (only
700MB with a cache_mem of 580MB) I would also say that your cache is
barely filled. Memory usage will increase.
