Thanks. hmm, this doesn't answer your question specifically but i've pushed 150mbit/sec with a single node squid2.6 reverse proxy using 5.2gb of memory-only cache. the requests were all for images about 20kb on average, sorry i'm too lazy to do the math. the server didn't break a sweat, cpu was idle at 98% and the only IO was logging. with bigger traffic it started to swap but this was likely a hardware/kernel limitation, not squid. dual core intel 2.4ghz 8gb ram single onboard intel nic
