Uhmm,
security
speed (line utilisation effiency)
resource use (squid can be tuned to be small and fast for such
environments)
flexability

And thats without mentioning:
run squid with acceleration mode on port 80, filtering requests and
forwarding valid ones to your webserver on an internal server.
