what what way have you got squid setup to process url's containing "?'s"
& cgi. the default is to disable cacheing of those.
I've found that enabling their caching will definately speed up accessing
ireland.com but it can absoulutely MURDER many similar cgi queries made to
the some systems..
try out this URL & see what happens with the cgi stuff enabled & disabled
as it's the reference that I have to measure everything else against
http://eurodic.echo.lu/cgi-bin/edicbin/expert.pl
it's a long shot but it might work with a bit of fiddling :)
