Re: [squid-users] Squid crashing when access.log hits 2GB.

It seems to be more than just the FS:

I would try mkfile or dd to create huge files to test FS limits.

How about disabling the logs when running load tests? This will solve
the problem, but probably falsify your results as it may improve
performance.
