Then those requests is not reaching Squid for some reason.

Most likely your proxy, not Squid. From your description it sounds like
your proxy has problems with persistent connections, not forwarding the
next request received on a persistent connection.

openssl is not a proxy. Is your proxy a homebrew software of some kind,
or a ready made application? If a ready made application, which one?

If the above suspicion is true it should help to disable persistent
connections in Squid
