I assume you're looking in Cache Manager's "General Runtime Information" screen. The "Page faults with physical i/o" statistic is the number of times Squid looked for a requested object in memory, didn't find it, and had to load the object from disk. Divide the number of page faults by the "Number of HTTP requests received" statistic, then multiply by 100 to get a percentage. Let us know what this percentage is - I honestly couldn't say at what level one should be concerned. Disk is slower than memory, so if the number is really high then it can impact performance. The solution is to allocate more memory for Squid to hold cache objects in (the cache_mem parameter in squid. conf).
