Many conditions can cause a connection timeout error. Your load levels
seem to be relatively low so I would check the following, in the listed
order:

1. Are there any I/O errors causing as packet loss on the network
interfaces involved in request handling? If yes, check for duplex
conflicts, bad cables, and other networking problems. Netstat -i reports
relevant interface I/O statistics on FreeBSD and perhaps Linux.

2. Does the Squid box report lost/aborted connections due to TCP listen
queue overflows? If yes, increase the queue length. Netstat -s reports
relevant low-level TCP statistics on FreeBSD and, I think, Linux.

3. Does Squid have enough file descriptors to work with? Make sure Squid
has at least 600 (given ~200 concurrent connections reported on one side
of the test above). Check Squid's cache.log for information on the
number of available file descriptors.

4. Any other errors on the Squid box? Check system message log,
cache.log, and netstat -s.

5. Any other errors on Polygraph box(es)? Check system message log,
Polygraph logs on both sides (with verbosity level 10), and netstat -s.

HTH,

Alex.
