The cachemgr "info" report. From the cachemgr.cgi tool, or "squidclient
mgr:info" command line, or
http://$visible_hostname:3128/squid-internal-mgr/info

 Or calculated from a quick count of the access.log lines over a few mins.

Aha. So your users browsers are sending NTLM auth instead of Kerberos.
That is at least one part of the problem. NTLM handshake can take whole
seconds and places a lot of extra load on the helpers. To resolve these
the users software needs fixing to use Kerberos properly when Negotiate
is offered.

The other part is figuring out what amount of helpers is needed to meet
the load requirements. With NTLM it is usually several hundred.
