Module: SQUID-MIB
OID (symbolic): SQUID-MIB::cacheMemUsage
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.3495.1.3.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Integer32
Access: read-only
Description: Total memory accounted for KB
What is cacheMemUsage?
Reports the total memory Squid currently has accounted for, in KB, across all of its internal pools. It's a broader figure than cacheSysVMsize alone and is what an admin checks first when suspecting the Squid process is using more RAM than expected.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.3495.1.3.1.3 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SQUID-MIB::cacheMemUsage
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.3495.1.3.1.3.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SQUID-MIB::cacheMemUsage.1
