Is it possible to "mark" packets from particular programs running on the 
routing server?  Such as Squid or Apt?

Without this, I have no way (that I know of) of identifying the nature 
of the HTTP traffic so I can limit it accordingly.

Squid marks its own traffic for QoS as needed.
Recent versions go as far as to set it based on originating source for 
better external/internal flow handling.

apt can be configured to use Squid or system proxy settings for more 
efficient bandwidth usage.

Thank you.  For Squid, I assume you're referring to the 
'tcp_outgoing_tos" parameter.  For Apt, I don't see how to handle it - 
except to run a 2nd copy of Squid, which I don't want to do.
