but there's just nothing recent to use as a measuring stick..

HI folks
I already know that there is not a recipe for squid. But I wonder if
anyone knows an official document that lists squid requirements.

That's a bit like asking "What kind of a car should I get?". You need to
give some details of the expected workload.
In general, get a higher clocked CPU, as much RAM and as many drives as you
can afford, and use regex based ACLs sparingly.

OK - then let's start collecting some numbers with more recent hardware:
we have a Squid 3 stable 5 on a opensuse 10.3 running on following
system for about 100 users
with adequate response times:
IBM xSeries 3250 M2
1x Intel Core 2 Duo E4600 2.4 Ghz/800 MHz (2 MB L2 cache)
3 GB PC2-5300 CL5 ECC DDR2 SDRAM DIMM
2x 250 GB SATA hard drive as a mirror configuration
This system is doing virus-scanning with ICAP-enabled Squid through KAV 5.5
Kaspersky AntiVirus for Internet Gateways
AND it is doing web-content filtering with SquidGuard 1.3
AND it is doing NTLM AUTH against the internal W2k3-ADS-domain
Best regards,
