When Squid was running on transparent mode,it would make lots of DNS queries.
Would Squid cache those DNS query results for some time?I didn't see
an available directive for this purpose in squid.conf.


The big problem here is that in transparent proxy, DNS queries are NOT forwarded to squid, only http ones.

So your clients will do DNS queries to the DNS they are configured to query. If DNS resolves fine, the HTTP query will be made and this one will be forwarded to squid in transparent proxy fashion.

And when squid receives the HTTP query, it will have to DNS query again ....

So, no matter squid is caching or not DNS queries, you'll still see lots of DNS queries in your network from your clients AND from squid as well.
