squid comes with an own DNS cache, you can look at its contents in cachemgr.cgi. You can modify its behavior via the configuration file. You can also use an external DNS resolver, but normally I would not see the point. If you have slow DNS queries, the problem might also be an incorrect resolver configuration on the squid machine - internal DNS on a machine making only external connections or so.
