Estimate: Not much, if any.
Squid cannot utilize SMP very good, and enabling SMP support (required
for HT) in the OS significantly slows down most things used by Squid...
Maybe a gain can be seen if you compile Squid with the Intel ICC
compiler with support for automatic threading, but only if you are in
the situation that your Squid is seriously CPU bound.
