Hi

I recently implemented a new proxy system. I am looking at doing is
setting a periodical test that
goes out to the Internet, pull some content down and record the
relevant metrics.


PC------------>Proxy----------->FW------------------>Internet---------------->Site-with-content


Some sort of scheduled process on a PC, that pulls down some static
content from the same website, which is repeatable. The application
would then record metrics such as speed, time taken to download the
static content and log that.


Squid native access.log contains transfer duration and size metrics.
Some other options not in the default format provide additional metrics if you need them. See http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/logformat/ for a lit of log metrics.

Otherwise the SNMP counters can be used, but they do not go down as fine grained as indvidual requests.
