[squid-users] External ACL Problem

Hi all, running Squid 2.5 Stable 1 (I have tried Dec 12th, Jan 15, and
Today Feb 22nd).

The problem I am having is that I have about 25 external ACL instances
of a program called referer.pl running in my squid package.
The external ACL works fine, but when I shutdown squid I get a million
of these in the cache.log file

2003/02/21 21:50:02| externalAclLookup: 'referer' queue overload
2003/02/21 21:50:02| externalAclLookup: 'referer' queue overload
2003/02/21 21:50:02| externalAclLookup: 'referer' queue overload
2003/02/21 21:50:02| externalAclLookup: 'referer' queue overload
2003/02/21 21:50:02| externalAclLookup: 'referer' queue overload
2003/02/21 21:50:02| externalAclLookup: 'referer' queue overload
2003/02/21 21:50:02| externalAclLookup: 'referer' queue overload
2003/02/21 21:50:02| externalAclLookup: 'referer' queue overload
2003/02/21 21:50:02| externalAclLookup: 'referer' queue overload

I literally get thousands per second. I assume this is because the =
referer (External ACL) is still being called when squid tries to shut =
down. Because of this squid never shuts down, and within 5 mins the =
cache.log file hits 2 GIGS because of this error? Does anyone have any =
experience with this problem. If they have I would REALLY appreciate =
some help.

Thanks,
Matt
