Thank you.

But what is about TCP window size? Why it is likely? Could you explain or give some links?

Any I don't understand: "The least available amount of both pool limits apply".
If I have following configuration, for example:
delay_pools 1
delay_class 1 2
delay_access 1 allow allowed_hosts
delay_access 1 deny all
delay_parametrs 1 16000/16000 400/400

And there are 40 users in our network. But now 20 of them is absent.
In this case, how many byte per second does each present user have, in reality?
Can squid automatically increase the bandwidth of each present user in order to fill all 16000 bytes of incoming traffic?
