Bandwidth is more than just speed. It's speed over time. What you should be looking at is the total traffic of a period of time. This would tell you what is being saved by the cache. Also, the kind of traffic and time of day will greatly impact this due to surfing habits changing.

Importance: High Dear Henrik/Ahmad once again i need your help regarding the bandwidth usage of squid.It is consuming more bandwidth than saving i doubt if it is saving anything. How i found that squid is using more bandwidth is mentioned below. I have a proxy server with about 50 users and it is connnected to squid with wccp. The ip address of my proxy server is 202.152.128.25 The ip address of my squid server is 202.152.128.2 When i check the ip accounting with a software called netflow i get the following results 202.152.128.2 250Kb/s ------>>when using squid+wccp v2 202.152.128.25 170Kb/s------>>when using proxy server alone WITHOUT squid. The following is the http stats. current hits 199.0 req/min current requests 324.0 req/min i have 3 scsi driver 8 GB each and they are 50% full. so what is the fun using squid if it is consuming bandwidth rather saving, kindly do clear me.
