Just a simple scenario?
I use a separate cache file system for all my many squid boxes.
Now for some reason one of the boxes get bounced and my squid cache filesystem
fails to mount but squid comes up happily and say Oh look I don't have any
cache directory structure so let me make one! Root filesystem is limited in
space and then this dirty great big directory structure is created and then
gets used by squid. In the twinkling of an eye the root filesystem is full!
Ever tried to solve this kind of problem when the server is hundreds of
kilometers away? Its phun!
Give me squid -z!!
Cheers
