Ok, do you have 10 systems TOTAL, 10 Linux systems, or 1 Linux server and 10 WindowsXP clients?? Based on what you posted, it's hard to tell. Your Squid server is CentOS 5.5, that's clear. How many TOTAL clients, and what OS'es are they running?

Problem is: whenever an user trying to open a website through squid server, it opens too slow, but if same user tries to open same website by passing squid server, it opens 3 times faster. Downloading speed is same in both scenario. Only buffering speed is slow through squid.

Downloads aren't cached...web pages are. You don't post any details about the server, its hardware specifications, how many NIC's it has, how they're configured, and what speed they are. All those things factor in. You also don't say anything about how your Squid server is configured, or post anything from your Squid logs.
Just a wild guess, but have you tried setting client_persistent_connections to off in your Squid configuration? Have you looked up and/or followed any of the Squid performance tuning guides you can easily find on Google?
