Mileage will vary according to what the users are downloading. If it is
dynamic content then this won't cache (news sites often have a no cache
setting). We have about 100 terminals running through Squid and get about
30% of our hits and 20-25% of the bytes. There is also the question of how
large a cache have you got and how much RAM available to Squid? We are
a school site and a lot of the data that goes through Squid is dynamic in
nature and a lot of webmail!
