As the userbase size increases the cache hits will increase.

It took literally slightly over 1 million users at the prior site I
ran Squid for to get slightly over 50% cache hits. 23% for a small
site (300 users) is reasonable, depending on the workload and how much
of the sites are all-dynamic content which can't be cached.
