WARNING " All 5/5 check_cp processes are busy."

Hi
I implemented squid a few days ago and I'm getting this message in the LOGS.
I Use Transparent SQUID + Splice ALL + SSL + Squidguard.
I also use the captive portal to authenticate.
I found some options to change the "url_rewrite_children" but it did not work.

The Message i receive is:
WARNING: Consider increasing the number of check_cp processes in your config file.
WARNING: 5 pending requests queued
WARNING: All 5/5 check_cp processes are busy.

Thanks

Would not that be captive portal processes?

[guilherme_182]

Maybe, but I do not know how to increase the processes of the captive portal.

Not a "pfSense" process.
So probably something from

SQUID + Splice ALL + SSL + Squidguard

The captive portal doesn't have a (software) proces. At most a couple of instances of the web interface that hosts the login page - several nginx processes. These processes are called "nginx'. As you can image, they do not much work, and they don't 'block' anything.
"check_cp" is unknown to me (but I'm not using squid etc as it seems useless these days (to me)).
