I believe there were some bugs fixed regarding caching in 3.4.4. I noticed better cache hits after upgrading to the 3.4.4 version. I am now running 3.4.4.2 since there was a connect bug also fixed in this version.

Squid may choose not to cache for many other reasons related to the request headers, response headers, server trustworthiness, age of the object on arrival, and available storage space. Some reasons in the protocol are broad, like "a response to an unknown method is not cacheable". ** Others are very specific, like "a cached object with Cache-Control no-cache or must-revalidate may only be used as a response after a successful revalidation (304 not modified) from the origin server." ** ** very rough paraphrasing by me.
