Squid should be very very fast on a machine like that. If it isn't
something is wrong with the machine. Are you running a nameserver on
it that grows very big or something ? Squid needs _a lot_ of RAM
for it's own use.

Okay, but do NOT use more than 2-4 GB of the disk for squid - if you
want to use more, say 8 GB, you need more memory as well. 256-512 MB
of RAM wuld be required.

It doesn't use any special malloc, it simply uses the one from the
standard C library, glibc 2 in this case.
