I run three 1500/256 ADSL links on my firewalls, and squid on a box in
the DMZ behind it, and it does a reasonable job of load-balancing the
three.  You can see the MRTG graphs of the firewall's DSL interfaces:

Note however that this is not exactly the same situation, because squid
is on a separate box.  In my configuration, dsl2 has a weight of 4 and
dsl1 & dsl3 have weights of 3.
