client_delay_* is a rate limit on HTTP traffic delivered to the client
by Squid.

Assuming by "upload" you mean traffic from client to Squid, then yes it
is not going to count the bytes you want counted.


The modern QoS systems built into the OS are almost always better for
the rate limiting jobs. Especially for counting bytes *before* they
arrive at Squid on client connections.
