[squid-users] slow down response to broken clients ?

Hello,

Sometimes a client tries to reach a destination that is blocked at the
proxy. The proxy responds with a 403 and the client then immediately
tries again and again, making hundreds of requests per second. Is it
possible to add an artificial delay here so that the proxy answers
the client later?
Best combined with a rate limit, so that the delays only become active
when a certain limit of 403 answers is exceeded?
