wild swap.state

My FreeBSD 3.1 box is acting weird, from time to time the swap.state grows
to the size of all free space on my hard disk. I think it get corrupt, but
I don't know why.

Anyone saw this?

When this happens the squid process get all the memory (phisical and swap)
and at least one time I can't even login into the machine.

When I reduced the directories from 16 256 to 8 128 it work for more days,
but eventualy it happen again (2000 as the cache space).

Thanks for any info.
