They are self-regulating most of the time. They are one of the
cornerstones of HTTP/1.1 performance gains so nothing to be worried
about. Squid have a preference for closing them early rather than
leaving them open if anything unusual happens.

If you must reduce their lifetimes the pconn_timeout can shrink their
idle times down.

I forgot to mention pinning as a requirement earlier. That means 2.6,
2.7 or 3.1 are the only versions that will pass-thru NTLM.
