Glad to help David, please let us know how it progresses.
Dont know if you saw this in the archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg19824.html but it might help guide you on your SO_FAIL issue. It might be worth moving to LRU and establishing a baseline of performance (using either SNMP+cacti or cachemgr) before moving to fancier replacement policies. Personally, I would go 'store_log none' and not worry about it unless you see something in cache.log
The best all around advice I can give on Squid is to start simple! Once everything works the way you expect, then start tweaking your way into complexity with a means to track the (in)effectiveness of each change you make (and a known good configuration that you can always go back to when you inevitably fubar the thing!).

Thank you for that last Gregory, I couldn't put it better myself.
(and I've tried a few times).
That has made its way to #1 item on the configuring squid FAQ.
