I tested dual stack configuration (ipv4 and ipv6) with transparent

Time of transparent proxy is long gone. Especially with dual stack
transparent proxy makes things a lot worse. There are quite a few sites
with ipv6 address so that web site doesn't actually work at all with
ipv6. With transparent proxy in place browsers can't fail back to to
ipv4 rendering all these sites unavailable.
I have not noticed any issues yet. I've debated on ditching squid years
ago as everything was moving to https only. Squid can apparently break
through https now though, but I have not looked into it.
My biggest issue is I've been stuck on ATT dsl 6mbit internet for years
now. Thankfully I managed to get upgraded to 10mbit just a couple of
months ago but I doubt I'll ever get higher than that for many years. So
every bit of data that is fetched locally is a nice thing. I miss the
days when maps.google.com was http only. I used to cache all the images
to squid and that page would totally fly.
