Thanks Henrik.
is there a special cache per external helper? per instance of this
helper? Or all of this appends in the main cache of squid (so the result
would be associated to a page)?

It's cached per the expanded format string specified in
external_acl_type plus any additional data supplied by the acl
directive. To be exact it is the query to the helper that is cached.
In your case by source IP + my_argument.
There is a low-priority project to allow additional data to be sent to
the helpers not neccesarily part of the cache key but this is not quite
yet in place (the initial selected design did not work out too well in
how the cache key could be determined). For details on this see
devel.squid-cache.org.
