multiple Squids running with 1.2beta

Hi,
        I'm currently production testing Squid 1.2beta23 (seems to be reasonably
stable with the additional patchset). However, I notice that it seems to run
multiple copies. This is running on Linux 2.0.35 (glibc 2.0.7) with the async-io
option enabled (and SNMP too). Here's the process table:

root 1242 0.0 0.0 2220 496 p0 S 11:16 0:00 squid -sY

        Is this normal behaviour?
