Squid does what it can between shutdown signal arriving and the
shutdown_timeout completing. Theres not time to do much though.

Then as Leonardo said, cache is a temporary storage. Most traffic with
objects small enough to be worth memory-only caching these days is
dynamic objects with very short lifetimes. So even if it was saved and
re-loaded from disk its likely to need a network fetch to revalidate
and/or replace soon anyways.
