1: Disable the nagle algorithm. This is automatically done on
TCP_NODELAY, but the kernel can be compiled to disable it by default.
(see net/ipv4/Config.in)
2: You can't do that. TCP relies on ACK to keep the transmit window
moving.
3: Enable large TCP windows to get 64K (kernel config option), if more
is needed then edit include/linux/skbuff.h (not tried, but it should
work..)

Yes, Squid uses TCP_NODELAY on all network connections, both client and
server connections.
