It really depends on the environment and links speed you do have now.
If you do a very specific thing which is use a cache_peer only for
windows updates while using a hierarchy like this:
Main LB and router proxy -> domain specific proxy cache_peer

on the domain specific cache_peer instance or machine use:
#start
range_offset_limit -1
maximum_object_size 2 GB # or any other size that you think worth and
make sense.
quick_abort_min -1
#end
I am not following windows updates too much but I assume that these
updates has a pattern by the url and or headers which can clarify how it
*should* be cached safely.

this wiki: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/WindowsUpdate
is not up to date with all the settings but it's a good started in the
research of "windows update in the internet".
If you have a local windows network and server you can just add WSUS
service that will build a updates store which is better for many networks.
