I am not sure whether the squid log messages are that useful to look into. So I summarize the properties that I find useful about them: * one line per request * fixed set of fields + time of day (syslog already does this) + source (currently only with $debug) + length (absent) + service time (absent, not that useful for approx) + hit/miss (only misses logged atm) + uri (present) Another example of such a log is apache. It has a different format, but the general idea is the same. Using a common format has the additional benefit of being able to reuse existing tools, but likely comes at the cost of no longer being able to use syslog. I am not sure whether this is really worth the effort. As a compromise I'd suggest to keep logging to syslog, but prefix all per-request messages with a common string such that they are easily recognizable (for a log analyzer).
