As long as squid will behave like proxy (i.e. any uncached
request) - no, it shouldn't (as squid has to read full response
before it will be able to drop chunked encoding).

No, shouldn't have any noticeble performance impact, it's just a
few extra bytes. Adding squid in from of nginx will likely have
though - I guess it will slow down things a lot.
If you really care about performance - take a look at gzip_static
module instead. This will save you a lot of CPU time. As a side
effect it will allow nginx to use Content-Length instead of
chunked, but this doesn't really matter.
