What is a good SQUID Logs Analyzer?
Solution 1
I used LightSquid: http://lightsquid.sourceforge.net/ It was good enough for me for several reasons:
- It is fast, takes very little diskspace (In comparison with SARG, only ~45Kb of Perl scripts)
- There is nothing superfluous
You can try it, using online-demo: http://lightsquid.sourceforge.net/demo17/index.cgi?year=2005&month=04
"Official" feauture-list:
- fast and simple install fast log
- parser generatesmall per user data
- file perl based cgi script for
- dynamic generated report pages html
- template for design no database
- required no additional perl module
- various reports user groups support
- graphics report (v 1.6+) real name
- (v 1.6+) multilangual interface

Calamaris might provide what you're looking for. Handles many different types of logs, including squid.
Solution 3
I use Free-SA which is similar to SARG but much faster and doesn't crash on huge log files. It works very well.
"Free-SA is statistic analyzer for daemons log files similar to SARG. Its main advantages over SARG are much better speed (7x-20x times), more reports support, crossplatform work and W3C compliance of generated HTML/CSS reports code."

Can anyone recommend me a good tool for analyzing squid logs ?
I'm currently using SARG. Is there something better?
I need to easily see what sites were visited/denied, when and by whom.There is a list of squid analyzers. Some of them seem to be out of date.
