This is wrong. MS C runtime library makes no difference between "/"
and "\" chars in paths, but the usage of "/" char in Squid.conf is
recommended in the Windows specific documentation included in the
binary package. Do you have read it ?

Probably you have unintentionally fixed some other thing in your squid.conf.

Your squid was not starting, now you say that it is slow, they are
typical DNS misconfiguration problems.
