Yes I'm using a transparent proxy

OK, I tried adding the following options and restarted squid, but no difference. Still the same results. With the delay pools off, things are faster, but not as fast as if I bypass the proxy all together. Is that how it is suppose to be? If so, then I think I'm all set. But if the speed results from that website should be faster with a proxy, then I suppose there is still something else going on.

I agree, I will add these too and try it again.
