I have not studied your configuration, but doing SSL encryption and/or
decryption (including the SslBump "bump" action) does require a lot of
CPU cycles. Enabling bumping may decrease sustained peak throughput by
70% or more.

If your users are suffering, and your machine has spare physical CPU
cores, consider using SMP Squid:
