Well, that is just one megabit per second. That is the link bandwidth, it's
irelevant to provide different interval, you are just confusing us (or at
least me). We can count how much does that make for a day, week, month, year

so, some users access directly your squid?

by using configure option when building squid. It's only stable in squid-2.7
though. If you have 2.7 already built, check if it's not enabled anymore,
and you can reserve some disk space for COSS cache_dir.

look at http://devel.squid-cache.org/coss/index.html
and http://devel.squid-cache.org/coss/coss-notes.txt
