Anyone has experience peculiar things with Squid and PPPoE ?

I have a setup where Squid is doing transparent tproxy for PPPoE
and non-PPPoE users, however the experience is that when
squid is serving the cached files for PPPoE users, it's slower
than a commercial product.

Is it possible that this is a MTU problem ? Does it make sense
to change the ethernet interfaces to have a smaller MTU
( matching with a typical PPPoE config ) ? Or do I have to
add iptables rule to clamp-mss-to-pmtu ?

I have already got

      httpd_accel_no_pmtu_disc off

as the default value.

Regards.
