Hi,
maybe you should use the new calamaris version. It tells you some
perfomance values like 'Proxy efficiency' and 'speed increase'. You also
get infomation about your refresh_pattern in the 'Requested extensions'
report. Here you will see how many of the cached objects are stale or
fresh.
The 'Proxy efficiency' factor tells you how fast  your squid is with
cached objects.

Regards Michael
