Squid caches everything correctly but for some reason it seems like it fetches everything again from the source rather then to just pass it from the cache to the user. I've made a small test by downloading a 900Kb file and then re-download it a second time after the first download finished and I'm basically getting the same speed the second time as the first. I've checked my access log and I'm defnately getting a HIT. This is when I'm using transparent mode. If I specify the proxy in my browser it downloads the 900Kb file in seconds the second time.
Are you sure it is not your bandwidth manager which throttles the response?
