Right. But in most normal proxy situations TCP_HIT for objects which are
still in the OS filesystem buffers (which may grow larger if less memory
is used by Squid for cache_mem) is not very much slower, and having the
additional memory for filesystem buffers may speed up other operations
such as writing to the disks considerably..

If you run an accelerator for a "small" static web site which can fit
mostly in memory then you want most content to be TCP_MEM_HIT, but the
situation is somewhat different for a normal proxy.

Optimizing a system is about finding the proper balance between things.
