Squid v3 does not log a lot of things that newers Squids log. However,
the message in question is present in v3.5 as well, which increases the
probability (but does not guarantee) that you are dealing with a problem
that should be addressed rather than ignored.

Probably. I recommend these steps:

  1. Figure out _why_ these connections fail.
  2. Either fix the problem or quell the messages about it.

The first step probably requires analyzing debugging cache.logs and/or
packet traces to determine the reason behind those closures. It could be
idle connection timeouts, capacity limits, access control violations, or
even Squid bugs.
