[squid-users] Squid performance issues

[Marcio B.]

Hi,

I implemented a Squid server in version 4.6 on Debian and tested it for
about 40 days. However I put it into production today and Internet browsing
was extremely slow.

In /var/log/syslog I'm getting the following messages:

Aug 31 11:29:19 srvproxy squid[4041]: WARNING! Your cache is running out of
filedescriptors

Aug 31 11:29:35 srvproxy squid[4041]: WARNING! Your cache is running out of
filedescriptors

Aug 31 11:29:51 srvproxy squid[4041]: WARNING! Your cache is running out of
filedescriptors


I searched the Internet, but I only found very old information and
referring files that don't exist on my Squid Server.

The only thing I did was add the following value to the
/etc/security/limits.conf file:

*-nofile 65535

however this did not solve.

Does anyone have any idea how I could solve this problem?

Regards,

Márcio Bacci
