Squid / Transparent / slow internet

[fil23]

The problem starts when in the settings of the SQUID transparent mode switch on the server. The Internet very slow loading web.

You haven't given much helpful info, but my guess would be that you've either configured Squid with too little memory, you're using disks that are too slow for your cache, or your Internet connection is very fast.

In my case I use Squid to only cache large files because small ones can usually be fetched from remote servers faster than they can be grabbed from cache, even with it backed by SLC flash.
