Any server (aka. app *behind* Squid) does not see all requests *arriving* at Squid, only the ones Squid sends to it. > I think its doable by iptables , but i really was hopping we can do it from squid level . > iptables would be right if you actually mean new TCP connections per second. If you actually mean HTTP requests per second, then you would need Squid. But since this is completely counter to the goals of a proxy (*increasing* req/sec) you will need an external_acl_type helper to delay requests. In current Squid we have a helper called ext_delayer_acl which delays each request by a fixed amount of time. You may be able to use that as the basis of one that does what you need. > > so you can imagine http req/sec or tcp req/sec same here as squid is being used only on http protocol . Er, that does not make sense. HTTP protocol has infinite number of requests per single TCP connection. There is no equivalence.
