Can you give some idea of how much memory is required to support each
redirector, or is this a fuction of which redirector is used and what
the redirector is doing? In my case, I am using squidGuard.

Well, say 1000 of these customers are accessing the Internet at any
given time, so all requests are being sent through squid and the
redirector.
