Re: [SQU] what is read_timeout?

Those are not performance related settings, they are HTTP compliance and
environment related behaviour settings. While they may indirectly
effect performance in some very modest (probably immeasurably small)
way, they are not the settings you should be looking to for increasing
Squid's performance. Assuming your OS network settings are configured
correctly, you should not run into any performance issues related to the
configuration directives you mention, at all.

If using Linux (and even if not, it can be informative) read this:

Good luck.
