There has not been any large improvements in Squid performance since the
last benchmarks.

No. And I do not imagine many competitors does even if some claim they
can on their very largest boxes. 2-3 thousands responses per second
aggregates to 200-400Mbps of HTTP traffic.

Generally no, due to the nature of TCP/IP, but there is starting to
emerge the needed technology to do this in Linux. See the squid-dev
archives.
