What do you *want* to do?

Go direct?

acl jallah url_regex ^jallah_img\/
acl kalimba url_regex ^kalimba_img\/
always_direct allow !jallah !kalimba

Pick a (pseudo) random parent for requests that DON'T match those terms
in the URL?

cache_peer jallah.image parent 3128 3130 sourcehash
cache_peer kalimba.image parent 3128 3130 sourcehash
acl jallah url_regex ^jallah_img\/
acl kalimba url_regex ^kalimba_img\/
cache_peer_access deny jallah.image kalimba
cache_peer_access deny kalimba.image jallah

Use one parent proxy for all requests that DON'T match match those terms
in the URL?

cache_peer jallah.image parent 3128 3130 default
cache_peer kalimba.image parent 3128 3130
acl jallah url_regex ^jallah_img\/
acl kalimba url_regex ^kalimba_img\/
cache_peer_access deny jallah.image kalimba
cache_peer_access deny kalimba.image jallah

Something else?
