[squid-users] external_acl_type problem

>You referred to some assumptions that we might have on a linux system but
the question from my side is:
What for example?
Disk Space?
Libraries?
Etc..<

Sorry, I do not really know. I had one similar, very strange effect on my
embedded LINUX, regarding bash:
It was necessary for redirect function in bash to work, to have this one:
ln -s /proc/self/fd /dev/fd
So just my idea about this special squid function having a similar reason.
Because as I have seen, squid uses socket connections to communicate with
the helper. 
So just a long shot.

It very looks like squids accouting of helpers is disturbed: I see much more
than max helpers active after a few hours.  And lot of helpers stay alive,
when I kill parent process squid. 
This problem only shows up, in case of having 2 (or more) active requests to
2 helpers (same key: %SRC).
Like squid assumes some internal queuing of the 2 requests, but second
request is not.
So it also could be some type of resource issue: Only one socket conn
allowed for squid, second one is silently ignored. This would cause exactly
my effect.
It must be something very special, as I have a lot of other software running
on this embedded LINUX, incl. nginx, rsync. And without the helper, squid
ran fine for long time, incl. cache to SSD.
