no-query disables ICP.

In the above configuration Squid will prefer the first cache_peer, and
only if that didn't work out it will fall back on the next..

If you want Squid to distribute the request load over all of them then
use the round-robin or carp flags, but beware of web sites breaking due
to IP dependencies in most sessions..
