well it's not always squid fault..
if the server limits the connection speed or there is some other problem
or other infrastructure limits on your speed that not on squid fault...
you can't do anything else then using another ISP or any other
infrastructure element that causes the speed problem.
keep in mind that it can be the web server itself.
HP web site was one of the slowest ever for downloads (i dont know what
today).
people all over the world was downloading from HP download servers 15KB avg.
a client that was one isp hop from the servers got it in 15KB.
in my country the opensource local mirrors are now downloading files on
23KB because of mass update of firefox and ubuntu users.
so for now im using france mirrors and it's almost 3-4 Mbps.

so make sure that squid is not the one at low speed fault and after you
will find the cause start searching for a solution.
