Comment (by Thias):

 Just ran varnish with -d -d and got this :
 {{{
 [...]

 Child said (2, 16459): <<Child starts

 The previous "service varnish start" reported :
 {{{
 Feb 16 14:46:47 files02 varnishd: pclose=0
 Feb 16 14:46:47 files02 varnishd: file
 /var/lib/varnish/varnish_storage.bin
  size 20480000 bytes (5000 fs-blocks, 5000 pages)
 Feb 16 14:46:47 files02 varnishd: Using old SHMFILE
 Feb 16 14:46:47 files02 varnish: varnishd startup succeeded
 }}}

 So I get it... the storage file is only 20M... I somehow thought I had set
 it to 2GB...
