Absolutely! I've seen pretty significant variances even using different 
hard drives, which is what I'm using for my persistent storage. Though, 
in his case, as I understand, he is planning to forgo the persistent 
cache and only have squid filter the web requests. Should be a workable 
solution for him - especially without a persistent store.
