[squid-users] Squid 3.2 snapshot ... vanishing processes

Running squid 3.2 on a number of machines. Gradually the worker
process die with the FATAL xalloc message shown below. Config at
bottom of email. Then have to clear out cache directory,recreate and
restart squid. Usually wait till there only 1 or 2 workers left and
then do the lot. Would send a config but list end objects to size of
email being >50K
