Hello.
Recently we have added a lot more clientes behind a squid proxy, and now cpu
utilizitaion is usually 70-95%. The processor is a intel dual core 2160  @
1.80GHz. Users started complaing about the speed on accessing pages, and the
link is fine.

Here is squidclient mgr:info:

Is there anything that i can do to lower the cpu utilization, or do i  have

Thanks.
