For the moment I don't see anything wrong.
What you can maybe try, just for a test , is disabling the caching for a
certain site/filetype. And then try to download such a file via the
proxy.

If that works faster, then you will have a problem with the disks
(cache) or something similar.
If not...then you will have another problem (deuh :) . Maybe increase
loglevel then, maybe something can be discovered there.

Note: Do you have an antivirus running on that box? Because that will
slow down the downloads.
