SkyCache provides you with a perl reporting tool to qualify the
effectiveness
of their feed (i.e. percentage of requests which ended as HITs because
they
were previously fed via satellite) as well as a patch to squid to
compensate
for misleading hit rate infos (see ftp.skycache.com).

Hitrate obviously highly depends on your setup. For us, it's quite worth
it.
