[squid-users] Squid delay_access with external acl

[Francesco Chemolli]

Hello Szilárd,
  quoting from the squid wiki
<https://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidAcl#fast-and-slow-acls> :

"A possible workaround which can mitigate the effect of this characteristic
consists in exploiting caching, by setting some “useless” ACL checks in
slow clauses, so that subsequent fast clauses may have a cached result to
evaluate against."

In other words, a simplified example like:

acl users ext_user foo bar gazonk
http_access allow users all  # always allow, verify and cache cache user
auth
delay_access 3 allow users

should do the trick
