[H-GEN] A quick question about squid

Hi All,

I have come across a situation on my home network with people going 
through too much bandwidth and basically using the monthly quota and 
getting the connection shaped to a slower speed. I have set up a 
transparent proxy with squid and set the maximum object size to be 150 
MB so hopefully the large videos and stuff will get cached and not 
redownloaded all the time.

Anyway I was wondering if it is possible to set up delay pools for 
certain web sites like youtube and not slow the connection down on a 
local ip address but on remote web sites so users have a fast 
connection for most things and a slower connection for the high 
bandwidth sites like youtube.

Thanks for any suggestions you may have.
