Re: [squid-users] dead squid, Still looking,

If I do this, its a matter of hours and the same occurs again. What triggers
the process that squid feels it needs to start again and add a new process, why
did the old process die to begin with? In other words, what triggers the need
to do this over and over again. When doing a squid status I only ever see 2
processes.
