[squid-users] filedescriptors on debian/systemd

[Matus UHLAR - fantomas]

Hello,

I have encountered Debian bug 934208:

2022/07/28 16:40:53 kid1| With 1024 file descriptors available
2022/07/29 06:50:18 kid1| WARNING! Your cache is running out of filedescriptors

according to the bug report:

"Under systemd the default is not to have any limitation at all."

which seems not to be true, but:

Unfortunately there are still some bugs that needs to be straightened
out upstream for Squid to use the --with-filedescriptors value when
there is *no* specific upper limit provided by the OS.


limits when I log in (ssh or console) are 1024(soft) and 1048576 (hard) and 
yet squid starts with 1024 FDs.

I have configured:

# cat /etc/systemd/system/squid.service.d/override.conf
[Service]
LimitNOFILE=65536

and after reloading systemd:

# systemctl daemon-reload

and restart squid it seems to work properly:

2022/08/02 15:52:28 kid1| With 65536 file descriptors available


does anyone encounter this bug?
How do you fix it?
