No, all I am saying is that downloads are slower when using Squid proxy
and fast when not using squid proxy, on both the Squid box and other
machines on the network. So this is a Squid problem :). As you can read in
the original email, I used apache+mod_proxy+mod_cache on the Squid box
(thats what i am using for the time being till the problem solves) and its
working fine, its only using squid that slows down downloads to almost
half the available bandwidth.
