Probably somebody has noticed that you are using a very outdated Squid
version and is triggering bugs. I see at least two attack signatures in
that log snippet to which 3.5.2 is vulnerable. The restart is likely to
be from one of the ones which is not visible.

Please update to 3.5.20 and see if the problem remains.
