34 req/sec? no that is not a big deal. Apache at the bottom of the
hierarchy is the slowest link, with modern hardware it has several
hundred req/sec capacity on just about any load.

Still I can see that its annoying.

NP: So far as I can tell from here you have taken the Squid-2.6 config
as far as it can go. The requirement of not having different versions
of Squid active at once is creating the main blocker problem. A
migration starting with even just those bottom 4 Squid would enable some
of the needed configurations to take place.
  IMHO 2.7 should be the next direction taken. It is a drop-in
replacement for 2.6 (minimal adjustments to the existing setup) and
provides the "act-as-origin" on http_port lines and many of the caching
improvements.

Cheers, and good luck.
