[squid-users] Traffic prioritizing

[Eliezer Croitoru]

Hey Dr,

There are couple aspects to the issue.
The options are:
- TOS marking of specific connections
- TPROXY(leaving the src IP the same)
- delay_pools

If you have a shaping setup in place or device that is capable of 
traffic shaping based on TOS marking you can take a look at this option.
