There are three problems here. 1) the serial DNS lookups done by 3.1. The fix for that is upgrading to a current Squid where that is no longer done. 2) the 3.1 behaviour of looking up DNS for each server connection attempt. The fix for that is upgrading to a current Squid where that is no longer done. NP: this is not helped by your "server_persistent_connections off" 3) the 1 second round-trip delays to the Google DNS servers. I know there is a lot of avertising about how fast Google services are. But that really is only advertising, some networks it is not true. Yours appears to be one of those. I suggest installing a local bind DNS server on your network and using that. You may need to redirect client UDP port 53 traffic to it to prevent them getting the bad behaviour from Google DNS or "Host forgery" complains from Squid. PS. dns_v4_first sorts the results found in DNS so IPv4 are connected to first by TCP even if IPv6 is available and working better. It does not affect the fact that both A and AAAA are being fetched.
