Encryption adds CPU overhead, but how much depends on what your normal
use was. I dont think any of us have a good rule-of-thumb or educated
guess yet because Squid code has been changing so much.

If its worrying you, I suggest trying your favourite profiling tools out
and see if anything useful shows up.

I wouldn't rely on the default for things like this. Squid makes a
*guess* based on what data it has to work with on a per-connection
basis. There is no extra cost to having it configured, Squid has to
check the whole set anyway.
