I don't think you could get much performance improvement from the
compling options.
Those options are mostly for "enable" or "disable" a feature in squid.
Few of them are maybe good for performance under special
conditons,like --enable-async-io, --with-aio, --with-filedescriptors,
--enable-removal-policies etc. But others, I don't think so..

Deploy squid's serverbox with good hardware, like fast disk, huge
memory, strong CPU can improve the performance fundamentally.

Also this is the suggested usage for kind of high-performance squid from Amos:
