One thing I don't understand is how squid can eat CPU? Load average of 4. Hello...I can't take that. We have a single 800MHz/256MB RAM machine pulling load for 400 users and it's connected to 4MBps line. So heavy load you can say but it hosts hell many other things without a hitch. My advice is stick to 2.4.x. It's better network kernel. Secondly dump NFS and configure SAMBA shares. It doesn't use RPC and has to be way faster and secure than NSF. Sometime I will do it myself here. Your machine is more than sufficient. Make it 256MB RAM and hell of disk space. Something like 5GB of cache. CPU shouldn't be the bottleneck.
