TX is sent bytes. It depends on what your interfaces mean, but it looks
to me like it is uploads. There are known bugs in delay pools but they
cause very specific low number of multiples or fractions of the
configured pool size - not hundreds of KB faster rates.

So the report you are looking at is measuring the Squid<->client interface?

Squid delay pools are operating on the Squid<->Server interface traffic.
So they can rate limit your (probably costly) *upstream* bandwidth, not
your internal LAN bandwidth between Squid and clients.
