Sure. Poll the SNMP every 60sec and calculate.

You are using the word "speed" here in strange ways.

speed is a measurement of something over time.

How many seconds can you have in 1 second? dont make much sense to have
more than 1 or less than 1. So how can you save some seconds of the 60
sec period? ...

The thing which is changing is the bytes. You get more or less total
bytes in each direction every second (or every 60 seconds).

Proxy does not gain in speed, but it does gain/lose in some bytes each
time period.

So you take the calculation I gave for "bandwidth saving/loss" every 60
seconds. Also subtract the total savings value you had 60 seconds ago,
and the result is the savings in just these latest 60 seconds.

I assume that is what you are meaning. Since the other translations do
not make sense at all.
