:>|How can I resolve this Xmalloc error.

Try to run squid like this shell script
----------- script begin here ----------
#!/bin/sh
ulimit -t unlimited
ulimit -f unlimited
ulimit -d unlimited
ulimit -s unlimited
ulimit -c unlimited
ulimit -m unlimited
ulimit -l unlimited
ulimit -u unlimited
ulimit -n unlimited

squid -sY
----------- end of script -----------

I do this on my server, and it solve all problem same as yours

NOTE: you must unlimited at least follow

            data seg size (-d)
        stack size (-s)
        core file size (-c)
        max memory size (-m)
        locked memory (-l)

          I 've been remove core's unlimited,then problem come again. but i
still don't know why :p
