That's what I thought. We use anywhere from 60 to 160 GB per month.
First, I want to get this working (as per the other thread you are helping
me with).

Ideally, I'd like to have everything by-pass the proxy with only a few
exceptions.
for example, is there a way to write a rule using the "always_direct"
option?

Then use another rule in which I could specify which websites would have the
"never_direct" option apply to them?

Would that be an appropriate use of those rules, and does that make sense?
