Top only checks CPU usage - and Squid (like most servers on modern
hardware) will usually bottleneck on CPU last.

I suggested procinfo, vmstat, and sar because they give you info
on memory, disk, and CPU - and Squid will tend to bottleneck on disk
before anything else.

Also, you mentioned that the Squid server had 6 36-GB SCSI disks
- are you using any sort of RAID?
