"Just like NTLM authentication" means the clients operating system needs
to hold their credentials until reboot.
Even then the handshake gets redone whenever the browser makes a new
connection.

For basic Squid can cache the credentials for a set time:
   auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours

Or custom helpers can do whatever you like.
