The correct answer depends on where the bottleneck is (memory, disk, CPU, network, file descriptors, DNS, etc.). In most cases, that answer is "yes", but specific configuration changes would depend on the current bottleneck. What performance limits is your Squid instance hitting? Where is the bottleneck? IIRC, there are Squid wiki pages and book chapters dedicated to that complicated topic, but you can start with something as basic as atop reports, syslog messages, and cache.log errors/warnings.
