[squid-users] simple question about how far and fast squid fetch the object

I looked at many pages for hours now including the mailing list archives
but can't find a clear answer to the question in my mind.

some information about the question:
the clients have 64kbit physical bandwidth(ISDN line)
and the server has 1mbit connection.

actual question:
when a client requests a file, does the squid request the file using the
whole bandwidth and finish the fetching as fast as possible
or
it fetches the file as fast as the client can accept? In other words, as
fast as the data sent to the client is acknowledged.
