I have today managed to negotiate some hands-on time with a box that

runs on 2x Xeon cores with 36GB RAM. No disk worth mentioning.

All we need is to:
 - provide .deb builds of Squid for install (done).
 - have something to generate the load (server and client)
 - get testing done before the box needs to be put into production 
"sometime".

I thought web polygraph. Provided I can also negotiate access to a 
cluster of load machines to run the load. And figure out the test 
setup/config.

Just to followup.
Yes a super-PC cluster can be arranged to run the load. Provided it's 
easy to setup on each node.
