Hm, I think I read that squid can give you a max. of about 300 reqs/sec. As stated before on the list squid on itself can not make use of more then one cpu. So I think in a virtual server setup, you may be better off with 4 separate boxes (probably), I think it would give you more flexibility and squid service uptime, if one box is down, for instance.
