New to this: What use to have more than one squid on same machine

I have read in the archive that it is possible and/or desirable to have more than one Squid on a machine. What is the use of that? What does it give you if you define the one Squid as the parent cache of the other one? Is this (only) useful for big installations (we peak at about 1700 http requests/minute here)? Questions, questions, questions ....
