| You've told me that you are using 2.5.STABLE4. There is a known bug
| that could cause the behavior you describe, but it was introduced
| *after* 2.5.STABLE4. You might have been using that buggy code if
| you got Squid from our anonymous CVS repository or if someone is
| distributing a later version and still calling it STABLE4.

No, I downloaded the 2.5stable4 version from this link:
http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v2/2.5/squid-2.5.STABLE4.tar.gz

| The bug either causes Squid to crash or to enter an infinite loop and
| conusme 100% CPU time, which would result in the behavior that you've
| described. http://www.squid-cache.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=891
|
On my server CPU is Idle, consuming 0.2/0.3% CPU TIME....
