That should not matter at all.
My Squid (2.2-STABLE5) has an up-time of 195 days. Before that the OS
up-time was 400-something days (a physical move of the server forced a
power down). I did not notice any difference after a reboot. After boot up,
reloading and verification of the cache-index takes a while (12G cache).
During that time the performance is somewhat (not to much) reduced because
the machine is pretty busy. That is the only impact I see.
