Rule of thumb: Don't use configure options you don't know you need.

dlmalloc is shipped with Squid for the unfortunate ones where the OS
provided malloc is real crap. You'll know if you are one of those
unfortunate from Squid growing and growing in size even if the allocated
memory stays the same ("Free memory" increasing a lot over time in
cachemgr general runtime info).
