Without cache and not too complex ACLs about 700-2000 depending on the
CPU power. It uses a single CPU only so multicore CPUs or SMP don't
improve the situation much.

On multicore/SMP servers it's possible to run more than one instance however.

Note: Hyperthreading does not add anything for Squid, sometimes even degrades performance.
