[squid-users] Squid use all memory ram

Hi Gustavo,

I'm seeing the same thing. I could narrow down (but can't say with 100%
confidence) to the code that does certificate verification when configured
for SSL decryption. What is the output of squidclient mgr:mem for you? Do
you see unexplainably high counts for in-use objects like HttpRequest,
PeekingPeerConnector, Comm::Connection, Security::ErrorDetail?
