Squid bundles with a few helpers you could look at for inspiration ...
* time quota helper
<http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.4/manuals/ext_time_quota_acl.html>
* session helper with BerkleyDB backend
<http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.4/manuals/ext_session_acl.html>
* session helper with SQL backend
<http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.4/manuals/ext_sql_session_acl.html>
... of these I think the SQL session helper is probably most able to be
adapted. Since you have to provide the DB management code/scripts you
can easily make those do the timing part of your requirements. The
helper just checks if the SQL DB session record is currently active or not.
With the others you would have to alter their code slightly to meet all
your crieria.
