Where are you doing this monitoring? Between the Internet and Squid or
between Squid and the clients. Cached traffic is not affected by delay
pools.

Either use the squidclient on the proxy to access the cache manager...

/path/to/squidclient cache_object://localhost/menu

...or set up a web server with the cachemgr.cgi and give it access to
your cache. Look for a menu object relating to delay pools. I don't
have a server set up with delay pools, so I can't be more specific.
