I have a similar machines serving 800 to 1000 workstations without a
problem. These are used by several thousand users with 100k urls in
several blacklists. 


The additional redirect children aren't helping you (according
to the documentation). I execute a squid -k reconfigure in the middle of
the day and it goes unnoticed generally.

Reduce the redirect children to 1 and re-evaluate the performance.

Good Luck,

David Bronson
