You have specified credentials be cached for 1 hour. It goes something like this:

* New user connects
* Squid prompts for authentication
* User provides authentication
* Squid verifies data (LDAP Query)
* Every subsiquent request for the next hour squid uses cached authentication data
* After one hour if the same user attempts surfing squid sends new query to LDAP server
