Then you have bad problems somewhere.

The TCP backlog is most likely not your problem if you only have a few 
requests per minute. The TCP baclog generally only becomes a problem 
if you have many hundreds of users on slow connections (i.e. you have 
users calling you with a modem) or many thousands of users.

The TCP baclog problem is also noticeable if someone ill sinned person 
is SYN flooding your server and your OS does not have SYN flood 
protection.

This probably does nothing.. and if you do not have any other 
http_reply_access lines then most likely no traffic will be allowed.

This is not a good visible_hostname.. but is not related to 
performance.

Depends on what effect you want. This will make your Squid contact 
such servers directly without using any cache_peers.

It won't make your users bypass your Squid when talking to these 
servers. For this you need to configure your browsers to not use the 
proxy for such servers.

It will enable prefetching of pipelined requests.

It makes Squid ignore Expires on responses with a Vary header.

Neither of the two above options should be enabled unless you know 
what they are talking about.
