I had transproxy running on a quite slow box (p100) for 30 clients,
but tproxy caused quite some load if the proxy it was caching to was
down...
I never tried it with that many connections though.
BTW: i guess you'll configure your router to send :80 traffic to the
tproxy box?
squid has a transproxy too, maybe it's better to do load balancing
some other way, and let squid transproxy (read the squid faq for info
about squid transproxieing)
I don't think transproxy will handle such a load quite well, but you
can try and find out :)
