I want to give one example on the topic.

Here is from one of my cache:

/data/cache/d2/00/02/000004C3   0   102502
http://www.openoffice.org/favicon.ico
/data/cache/d2/00/01/0000031D   0   161421
http://rgho.st.squidinternal/favicon.ico
/data/cache/d1/00/2E/00005C04   0    33274
http://www.tcpiputils.com/favicon.ico

Just take a look on file sizes. This is only favicon. 100 kbytes for
favicon only! (on Microsoft I've seen 470 kbytes favicon once upon time).

When we take a look into access.log, we often see several URL's for favicon:

http://www.somesite.com/favicon.ico?v=1.44&id=41324134abcd123123123

Good site, isn't it? Loading 100 kbytes every time every client surf any
site page.

When I was doing research, it became clear that, in most cases, these
same favicon were one and the same content. As an example, a client with
a smartphone like to download 100 kB - and this is only a small portion
of the page! - everytime?

100 kb of mobile data traffic in most countries of the world - decent money.

Yes, usually from the client browser cache.

What about the number of clients and the access point, which pays
terabytes non-peering traffic?

The same tricks I've seen with a user-agent. With Vary.
