Comment (by Thias):

 I'm seeing a similar problem. The varnish child process dies after a few
 minutes. Here is what I see when I run varnish with -d -d :
 {{{
 start
 CLI <start>
 start child pid 31181
 200 0

 Child said (2, 31181): <<Child starts
 managed to mmap 536870912 bytes of 536870912
 Ready
 CLI ready
 >>
 Child said (2, 31181): <<socktest: linger=0 sndtimeo=0 rcvtimeo=0
 >>
 Child said (2, 31181): <<Assert error in smf_alloc(), storage_file.c line

   errno = 0 (Success)

 Child said (2, 31715): <<Child starts

 }}}
 This is with a 512M storage file. When I had set the storage file to be
 only 10M by mistake, I was seeing the same problem, but every 2 to 10
 seconds! So I'd suspect that varnish has some problem when the "cache is
 full" or something. This can be seen in bug #87, which is possibly a
 duplicate of this one.
