There is too little information to make a conclusion but
one should note that the HTTP command is only logged _after_ it has finished.
So if you upload something large or if the webserver needs 15 seconds
to process the request before it replies with a "thank you"
it is normal to see the HTTP command only after 10-15 seconds in the log file.

In case you still have doubts, you need to raise debug levels
to find out what Squid is doing with the HTTP request.
