squid by default waits 30 seconds before closing to give time to clients
to close their connections.

This is a very conservative value needed for big proxies. If you're
using squid just to serve the local machine or a not so big network you
can greatly lower this value, setting it to 5 or 10 seconds, or even
less and have squid take much less time to stop.

the configuration directive you should look at is "shutdown_lifetime"
