You can make an approximation if you configure the the other ISP as a
non-ICP peer, and configure Squid with "prefer_direct on".
cache_peer squid.other.isp parent 3128 0 no-query
prefer_direct on
You probably also want a reasonably low connect timeout
connect_timeout 5 seconds
This way Squid will first try to contact the source directly, and if the
connection cannot be established within connect_timeout fall back on
using the Squid parent at the other ISP.
