700 MB also works fine for us. 64MB is definitely too low (see below).

We did - it seems you didn't. We followed the rule-of-thumb from
http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-8.html#ss8.11!
2 * 17 GB cache disk == 34 GB.
approximately 10 MB of RAM per GB diskspace -> 340 MB RAM
plus the cache_mem setting (700 MB) and about an additional 10-20MB
sums up to: 340 + 700 + 20 = 1060 MB (about 1 GB).
Means we have about 1 GB extra RAM as recommended by the FAQ.
Maybe the real question is: Does it make sense to use cache_mem = 700
MB at all?
