[squid-users] Reverse Proxy to Exchange 2010 OWA slow load time

I am testing with Squid 3 Stable 13 on CentOS 5, reverse proxy to
Exchange 2010 and seeing very slow page on the main OWA page. When I
access OWA, the initial login page loads very quickly, then I click
"Sign In." The next screen takes 4-5 mins to finish loading. I sat there
and timed it... If I hit refresh 3-4 times, the page loads completely.

Once the OWA main page fully loads, browsing is normal. If I close my
browser and login in OWA again, speeds are normal. If I clear my
browser's cache, the problem returns. The issue does not happen if I
directly connect to OWA. I searched the archive email and saw someone
with the same exact issue, but there were no replies. Originally I had
Squid 2.6 stable 21, then I upgraded to 3 Stable 13, hoping that would
address the issue, but it did not.

Thanks for your time and help.
