Re: [squid-users] Howto Clear Cache Periodicaly

Hello,
    I've also seen this issue. I'm on a FreeeBSD6 box with squid 2.5 on it.
My config is below. Generally when this happens the disk goes nuts, as if
it's trying to clean files out of the disk cache, i use a
du -sh
command and check the cache directories and they're full. My solution is to
add another cache dir, but i'd like to know why this is occurring. I'm not
getting any output indicating a problem in syslog or the squid logs.
Thanks.
Dave.
