Hi

I'm running Squid 3.5.11 (Linux, 64Bit) with 16 workers and 4
cache_dir's (rock) configured.

The 4 rock-caches where newly builded a few days ago. In the meantime,
during squid-startup, I receive warnings like this:

How critical are the "Invalid entries"? What's the reason for these?

Thanks a lot.
Kind regards,
Tom
