I have squid proxy server running on a FreeBSD-6.1 (amd) box. I have been facing this problem for sometime now. It's related to mbufs. For some reasons, my mbufs usage is extremely high. This high mbufs usage causes slow responses from Squid and in rare occasions, it even causes my server to reboot or locks out SSH sessions.

This FreeBSD-6.1 squid box serves about 3000-4000 users.


Lower your net.inet.tcp.{recv,send}space to 32768, or 16384
