No, it does not.
How often Squid perfoms ident lookups depends on
* How often the client opens new connections to Squid. The ident protocol
operates per connection so each new connection requires a new ident
lookup. (no IDENT is not a protocol for identifying who is logged on to a
specific IP, there may be multiple users on the same IP)
* The ident lookup is skipped for the connection if ident_lookup_access
is deny and no ident type acl is required in http_access processing.
