Strange and Weird configurations (Real: Load balancing)

Example: Splitting uploads and downloads between two ISP links

acl download method GET HEAD
acl upload method POST PUT

# IP used by link for downloads
tcp_outgoing_address 192.0.2.1 download

# IP used by link for uploads
tcp_outgoing_address 192.0.2.2 upload


I am using squid 2.7 STABLE8 on Windows 7 Platform.
I have two internet access links: link A with limited bandwidth (Data Cap)
and link B with unlimited bandwidth (Data Cap). i will like to implement
the above configuration example "Splitting uploads and downloads between
two ISP links" so that my download and upload requests will go through
link B while other http requests and related requests go through link A,
is it possible?

I notice that link A uses static IP while link B uses dynamic IP but the
two links have static DNS. Hence, in the sample above which address i am
going to use for tcp_0utgoing_address(es), is it their DNS or the client
IP?
If it is client IP, how can i implement the dynamic IP for link B since it
is ever changing?

Suppose link B is down or slow what happen to my download and upload
requests and if link A is down or slow what happen to my http and http
related requests?
Regards,
Yomi.
