I plan to migrate from Squie-2 to Squid-3 ASAP (got much other work to do)
because my current primary goal is ICAP which is available in squid-3.

Other, lower priority goals are
- caching of frequently used content, like youtube and possibly microsoft*
updates
- COSS storage

however in current situation even squid-2 is not a big win here, so I'm only
staying with squid-2 because of lack of time...
