[squid-users] Delay Pools question

Hello All,

I would like to configure delay pools to grant 512kbps of bandwidth to
an entire network of users and I would like each connection to share
the 512kbps if the file they are downloading is less than 10Meg but to
have the connection throttled to 80kbps if the file is greater than
10Meg.

How do I accomplish this?

Here is what I'm currently using:

acl Staff_networks src 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0
delay_pools 1
delay_class 1 2
delay_parameters 2 64000/64000 10000/10000000
delay_access 2 allow Staff_networks

Is this correct? If not what would be the correct configuration and if
it is not too much trouble could a brief explanation be given please.

I am familiar with delay pools configuration in general. I just don't
completely understand what the number after the slash in
delay_parameters represents.
That is, in this line:

delay_parameters 2 64000/64000 10000/10000000
                                         ^ ^

What does the second 64000 and the last 10000000 represent?

I created this delay pool by following examples and could not find
detailed explanations for these 2 parameters.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
Odin
