Squid is a very greedy program when it comes to file descriptors. However, changing maxusers to 48 should be enough for running squid and using the same machine as a workstation in X11. I am doing this at home, and with maxusers = 32 it worked fine. Oh and one more thing, is it possible that you have configured Squid to use at most X space, and when it finds it's reaching that limit it changes optimization strategy to save some space? -- Giorgos Keramidas, <keramida@ceid.upatras.gr> "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."
