Hit (the object is cached) service time in the milliseconds, miss (the
object is not cached) and near hit service time (Squid had to verify the
cached object is still fresh) in the tens of seconds and DNS lookups
(apparently) taking no time at all. Maybe it's just me, but I think the
problem lies outside of Squid.

I'd look at your Internet connection for congestion.
