Okay that makes sense.

Is it the reverse-proxy or intercepted traffic which is hanging on
https:// ?

I can't see anything obvious in the config which would cause that.

It might be related to what squidguard is doing, or to SSL negotiation
issues, or even packet delivery issues.

Small trick specific to 3.2 which you can add right after the auth:

   acl HTTPS proto HTTPS
   acl requireHTTPS dstdomain .darkhelm.org
   http_access deny !HTTPS requireHTTPS
   deny_info 307:https://%H%R requireHTTPS

That takes care of all the http->https redirection in one quick check
regardless of what URL was requested.

You can then drop the regex and simplify down to the more normal
dstdomain ACLs in your reverse-proxy config.
