Joseph, I have never used delay pools, but I did incorporate HTTPd_accel into my squid, which helped my speed. I do not host a web server, but it seemed to help. I'm assuming you are using a transparent proxy.
Try adding the following lines to your squid.conf, then restart squid. # HTTP_ACCEL options httpd_accel_host virtual httpd_accel_port 80 httpd_accel_with_proxy on httpd_accel_uses_host_header on See if that helps. Also, I don't see a "cache_effective_user or cache_effective_group" directive. Not sure if this is necessary, but when troubleshooting I find it's best not to leave any option out, no matter how insignificant it may seem.

I also commented out the delay pool lines and restarted squid to see what kind of speeds I got. They were faster than with the delay pools, but still slower than without the proxy all together. The speeds were around the 315 Kbps. Much better than 16Kbps:) If the delay pools are in fact my problem I guess I don't know how to set them up. I just want to slow everyone down who downloads files bigger than 2Mb. But I do not want to slow everything down. squid.conf: ------------ http_port 3128 hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin ? acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? no_cache deny QUERY cache_mem 256 MB cache_swap_low 95 cache_swap_high 98 cache_dir ufs /cache 25000 32 512 auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid/ldap_auth -b ou=people,dc=pineriver,dc=k12,dc=mi,dc=us -s sub -h 192.168.0.13 -p 389 -v 3 -f uid=%s auth_param basic children 10 auth_param basic realm Pine River Area Schools (proxy/cache server) auth_param basic credentialsttl 1 hours refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080 refresh_pattern ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440 refresh_pattern . 0 20% 4320 acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 acl manager proto cache_object acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255 acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 acl SSL_ports port 443 563 # https, snews acl SSL_ports port 873 # rsync acl Safe_ports port 80 # http acl Safe_ports port 21 # ftp acl Safe_ports port 443 563 # https, snews acl Safe_ports port 70 # gopher acl Safe_ports port 210 # wais acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # unregistered ports acl Safe_ports port 280 # http-mgmt acl Safe_ports port 488 # gss-http acl Safe_ports port 591 # filemaker acl Safe_ports port 777 # multiling http acl Safe_ports port 631 # cups acl Safe_ports port 873 # rsync acl Safe_ports port 901 # SWAT acl purge method PURGE acl CONNECT method CONNECT http_access allow manager localhost http_access deny manager http_access allow purge localhost http_access deny purge http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_portshttp_access deny to_localhost acl ldapauth proxy_auth REQUIRED acl mail-server dstdomain .pineriver.k12.mi.us acl tech-laptop src 172.20.20.254 no_cache deny mail-server always_direct allow mail-server http_access allow ldapauth http_access allow localhost http_access allow tech-laptop http_access deny all http_reply_access allow all icp_access allow all cache_mgr [EMAIL PROTECTED] visible_hostname pr-cache.pineriver.k12.mi.us delay_pools 1 delay_class 1 1 delay_parameters 1 12500/24000 delay_access 1 allow all coredump_dir /var/spool/squid ------------------ Joseph Rinckey
