[squid-users] Problem with squid

Hi
 
We have a problem with Squid, every 2/3 days we are forced to restart
the demon.
Strangely the daemon begins to answer slowly to the demands for
navigation until arriving has timeout.
The demon works regularly, but then during the day it begins to answer
slowly until not giving back no page giving back a Time-out message.
We kill the daemon and restart squid with -D option and works fine for
other 2 days.
I've seen that the squid fail to resolve the addresses by internal DNS
definition.
I've tried to use the resolv.conf or change DNS servers, but it has not
resolved the problem.
I've mistaken something in the configuration or I have determine the
proportions in wrong way mine squid?

Our squid run on a linux 2.4.29 with the follow hw:

1 CPU P4 2.8GHz
1GB RAM
80GB Sata
