squid can't benefit from multi-CPU configuration, unless you'd run more
instances of it, which is quite hard to maintain.
One squid instance could be enough, but that is hard to say (and easy to
try, if you don't mind). However that is highly dependent on traffic that
passes the server and number of requests per second.
If one instance wouldn't be enough, you can try multiprocess environment,
e.g. 1 proxy-only master server configured to connect to 7 slaves with
their own caches. Note that there should not be more than one instance of
squid on one cache disk.
