You don’t even know that but agreed that if you did then it is useful. If 1 is good enough then you could just stick to the extension the way I started this project. For me it was not. If you go to all that effort you at least want to know, maybe, how useful.

OK, here is a quick and dirty way to know. You will get the output below.  
`netstat -t4u4wanp | grep -i 'proxy'`

We know that it opens 2 connections per client so the ones to 193.187.88.42:443 and/or 141.212.118.18:443 tell you how many there are. We notice that the ones to 0.0.0.0 use our ephemeral ports.
