I'd go to 2.7 if it was squid being slow. It has a number of small
performance boosters missing in 2.6.
But, it does sound like a load balancer bottleneck if you had zero change
from adding two more Squid. The Yahoo and Wikimedia guys are the poster
installs for these types of Squid deployment and they use CARP meshing.
PS: We are very interested in getting some real-world benchmarks from
high-load systems like yours. Can you grab the data needed for
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/KnowledgeBase/Benchmarks ?
