I took a quick peek at the sampled squid log and found that CSS and JS
files together are eating a lot of bandwidth; together they make up
about 20% of what's served:

(May be inaccurate due to coding mistakes in my counter or weird dupe
caching effects.)
It should be possible to serve these files compressed through Apache
with mod_gzip set up, which should squish them by probably 2/3.
All projects have the same codebase, so that main.css is the same for
de.wikipedia.org and
en.wikipedia.org. Can we move the common CSS and JS
to a common address? This would reduce the number of identical copies that we
store in the squids - and of course it would reduce the load time for
users accessing different projects.
