Thanks for your valuable input, Eliezer and Amos. I have added the rough hardware and squid configuration, please guide me out with how much request squid can handle per second,
CPU Speed - each 3.30GHz( totally 5 processors) RAM - 4 GB NIC - one 10 GB Ethernet Adapter Squid Version - 3.4 Squid configuration - For authentication, it is integrated with AD and lots of ACLs(1000) to block sites.
