 Well, WCCP is a tunnel. So adds both bandwidth and processing overheads
 from the encapsulation/decapsulation. Plus small additional overheads
 from the WCCP protocol messages themselves.

 triangular/*asymmetric* routing will kill TPROXY. Though I think you
 just mean port routing.

 On principle and in theory routing is the better one.

 As an extra reason, WCCP is IPv4-only. Whereas IPv6 support is one of
 the big reasons to move from NAT to TPROXYv4 this year.
