  Not good , probably even bad.
  Let alone RAM requirements (see FAQ).

 Particular staying with the first part of your question
 Squid efficiency will not increase with a random pointed big cache size.
 Let alone the RAM you would need (see FAQ).
 
 The 'average advise' in terms of maximising efficiency is to choose
 a cache size corresponding to one week of traffic generated by your user
 community.
