Quite possibly squid restarting itself after a fatal error. The cache 
re-scan and recovery can slow general access down.


Check cache.log around the time of fault. If possible or necessary, you 
may need to raise the "debug_options ALL,n" level (n) up as close to 9 
as you can for full info on what squid is doing. It may cause very large 
logs to accumulate very quickly though.

I use squid 2.6 stable19. Pretty standard install. Runs on RHEL
