Hello William, Well... basically 150 pc's accessing the net at the same time is not a problem with Squid. It's just how you're gonna manage the proxy server. Just limit access to pr0n sites for the kids... and to staff members... some other acl's for other sites as well...
Delay pools to limit the bandwidth... hmm... dunno what else to suggest. I guess a 512 adsl would do fine.... (I guess) It's just a matter of managing what sites they are supposed to go to. And limiting stuff. Kinda high on coffee so forgive me on how I answered your question... LOL. Hope this helps...
