Just another random datapoint - I've just deployed my Squid-2 derivative (which is at least as fast as Squid-2.HEAD) as a forward proxy on some current generation hardware. It's peaking at 700 requests/sec and ~120mbit a sec with a ~ 30% byte hit rate. A reverse proxy with a high hit rate should do quite a bit better than that. Adrian
