Re: [SQU] Delaying...

With our Cisco Router (3640) we are redirecting the packets (port 80) to
proxy, in order to achieve transparency. Only telnet port is blocked to be
seen from outside...
What are the usual bottlenecks in Squid? I think we have enough RAM and
Proc. power to run a 4Mbit link... any idea?
