Squid usually becomes disk- or memory-bound long before CPU becomes a
problem, so a single-process design works well. For instance, the seek
time on those two 6.4gb drives will become a problem before even a
singe P2/450 would.
I actually run reverse proxies (web server clusters), so someone else
will have to give you an estimate on how many modem users those configs
will support.
