You are pushing Squid far outside its normal operating conditions.
Expect weird things to happen ...

What is this "opened sessions" thing you speak of?

Listening sockets are not "sessions" by any definition of session I've
ever heard of.

"kid registration timeout" from many listening port registrations is
more likely a UDS kernel level limitation. There are limits to how many
UDS packets can be sent through the kernel UDS bus.

Maybe, maybe not. There have been optimizations done on other things
that more commonly lead to the registration timeout message. Too many
listening sockets has not been mentioned before.
