[squid-users] i want more memory for squid?

Hello all,
I have a dell server with 1Gb RAM and its running
squid2.4STABLE6 on RedhatAS2.1
I am expecting that squid would be using atleast 300Mb
of the RAM, but suprisingly cache manager reports that
its only 52Mb. Is there any way i can increase this
value?

Pasted bellow is memory info from cahche manager and
process report using the top command.

Memory usage for squid via mallinfo():
        Total space in arena: 51009 KB
        Ordinary blocks: 50675 KB 2113 blks
        Small blocks: 0 KB 0 blks

        Free Small blocks: 0 KB
        Free Ordinary blocks: 333 KB
        Total in use: 50851 KB 100%
        Total free: 333 KB 1%
