That is just a label though, based purely on guesswork by the ACL helper using the parameters you configure Squid to pass it. So do not place as much trust in it as you would a login or your users will start complaining about other people using their access/accounts. > having an auth script plus an external_acl in the same time, it will make > the first requests very slow and our users will complain > Er, helpers and "slow" ACLs are typically only slow in terms of nano or micro seconds. Which are not humanly detectable. The biggest delay when it comes to first-request and login is all the time spent waiting for the users Browser to supply the credentials. A user may spend whole seconds reading the login box title and typing their password - either way they are too occupied to pay attention to the timing. There would have to be a huge amount of load or something very inefficient about your system for users to even notice 1 vs 2 helper checks on automated logins HTTP(S) performs once the UA / Browser has access to the users credentials.
