>From your description, this looks like a loadbalancing issue, specifically
if you are using DNS round-robin to loadbalance the 2 servers. In most
cases, users will hit the second (or last IP), because DNS round-robin works
from the bottom up.

To get away from guess work, please examine all your log files (cache.log,
access.log,...etc) they will give you a clear picture of what really
happens.

Another quick guess: a "slow" squid is usually an indication of a
"repeatedly crashing" squid, due to overload or system configuration issues.

Logs are your friend.
