Any problems with it?
My preferred method is cd /squid/cache mkdir junk squid -k shutdown [wait for it to stop] mv * junk squid -z squid rm -rf junk Pro/con + almost instant + disk space reclaimed quickly + No / or * in the dangerous rm -rf line - some more commands to type - silly warning about not being able to move junk into junk.. - Temporarily a high I/O load while removing the old files. to avoid the warning you can use the following mv command mv swap.state* ?? junk Or if the cache is on it's own partition, umount it, newfs and mount it again.
