Not all debug messages are an indication of a bug.

In most cases, "no data to process" is printed when Squid tries to read next
request from a persistent client connection and finds nothing. It happens at
least once for virtually every persistent connection.

In most cases, "lifetime is expired" is printed for idle persistent
connections: proxy has to wait a few seconds before assuming there will be no
further requests on a connection and closing the connection.

Now, I am not suggesting there are no bugs with persistent connection
handling. Most of the messages you quoted are, however, just "healthy"
debugging messages.
