The order of those rules is extremely sensitive. The DIVERT (which
handles both from-Squid and from-server packets) is required before the
TPROXY (which catches packets into Squid).

What do you mean by re-assemblies exactly...

* fragmented packets being assembled is required when there is a service
reading those packets as I/O. Optional for a router simply passing them on?

* packets ACK not being received from server and re-sent by Squid
machine TCP stack?

* packets being received from client multiple times?
