I certainly recommend upgrading the 3.1 package to 3.5 on general
principles - it has a lot of problems that are resolved in 3.5. Is/was
there a specific reason for that old version to still be present?


You should probably try the v4 squid package and see if it is better.
Without knowing the actual reason for the delays I'm reluctant to make a
specific recommendation for any software.
