I promised an update: Following my using an apache
proxy as a parent to my squid for youtube videos, I
have setup jesred to rewrite my url's for videos
already in my cache. HIT rate has gradually moved from
about less than 3% to close to 30%. I hope it will
continue to increase with time as I get more videos in
my cache.

I have a script in crontab searching through store.log
 to update my jesred regex rules.

Things To Do:
Maintain my jesred rules with a script that will
expunge regex rules for expired objects.

Thanks, Now ready to deploy my squid for the whole
network within the next few days. Windowsupdate still
a headache though. Not found much that have been
helpful yet.
