This corrects the "out of file descriptor" error with the default 1024 FD in squid redhat 7.1 package.
Squid script for start has been modified to add a ulimit -HSn 8192.
This compil seems to be very stable and has been deployed over many machines. The limit of 1024 has been passed really cool.
/etc/init.d/squid stop
Download the RPM, backup your /etc/squid/squid.conf and do a rpm -ivh --force of the new RPM.
Restore your conf
/etc/init.d/squid start
That's it !
