When I was at unimelb a year or so ago, on the squid devel group, I did
raise the possibility of having squid read the published list of ASNs to
determine how local a site was. It is still a good idea, but
unfortunately I don't have time to even contemplate development of it.
It should not actually take up too much mem, even with full tables: 40k
routes, each requiring 10 bytes (net, mask, asn) - 400 kbytes. Of course,
to speed lookups some sort of hashing would be required, which would
require more memory.
