Thanks! I find some informations on this page http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidMemory While it looks like a bit older, it seems that with current 64 bits processors, one need more memory : with a 1TB drive, you need 15 GB for squid metadata cache and 15 GB for the rest. Anyway, I'm also considering the Polipo caching proxy http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/polipo/ it should be ok for a small amount of users, and, as I understand the manual, require lower memory.
