The response time in access.log is as close as you get on a per-request basis. As Squid does not buffer the whole response (only 16KByte) this actually gets quite close.
I'm using squid as an authentication only proxy. No caching. I have many rules and want to see what type of overhead internally squid has.
This is very hard to measure outside a testbench.
Or to put it another way -- I can get total client wait time by looking at access.log, I want to see how much of that wait is between the server and the proxy. Then subtract those two numbers to get an idea of how much overhead squid has.
Provided your Squid is properly configured and you are not running out of CPU this should be close to 0.
