Summary0000051: Squid v2.6STABLE1 (20060705) spawns an entire copy of itself for child processes (e.g. redirectors or unlinkd) to run
DescriptionHello!

PSTAT or PSPM/2 seems to show that Squid spawns an entire copy of itself for unlinkd (& probably pinger) and for redirectors.

The process chain is therefore SQUID -> SQUID -> (child)

This causes Squid to use a lot of memory and to be slow in processing -K RECONFIGURE commands.

Previous Squid ports (using EMX) have used a socket/FD with the child process being spawned directly.

Regards,
Stephen

I've taken a look at the source of the last EMX build of Squid and know what I need to do now :) Should have something soon!

Hi Paul,

Just tested with Squid 2.6 Stable 3 build you have done to see if any changes (although not expecting anything until you can work you stuff on it!) and no changes.

Ta,
Stephen

I have a build running locally where unlinkd is spawned with only one copy of squid.exe

Problem is that it currently won't start squidguard.exe - will try look into it tonight.
