Greetings,
I'd like to introduce you to squid-3.2.
http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.2
It is currently held in beta due to some background structural changes not
having been completed but otherwise ready for testing and for use where it
tests out as usable.

The current stable releases all support manually configuring and running
multiple Squid instances with a peering heirarchy setup inside the box (no
virtualization required). With a gateway instance or NAT scripts to perform
rough port sharing. Lookup load balancing Squid in google or the Squid FAQ
wiki to get examples and tutorials.
