Hello Christophe,
I do notice a similar problem only when the
squidguard processes are initializing while squid is
starting. Squid queues web requests and waits for the
squidguard processes to settle before passing each
request to it. If you have a large cache and a large
number of clients it can take quite awhile. After it
catches up with it's requests however mine settles
right down. We have about 250 connections accessing
per minute and it is run on a Pentium 200 Pro with 256
Mg of Ram. I use 6 squidguard processes. I block the
same rules 24/7 though so you might want to check
without time restrictions.

p.s. Hope I was some help.
