The access.log does not (yet) contain information on the amount of data
uploaded. And it is also the case that delay pools does not apply on
uploaded data, only downloaded data.

To get some accounting on the amount of uploaded data you can use the
custom log patch and extend the log to include the Content-Length request
header (NOT reply header). This will at least log the amount of uploaded
data for non-SSL requests.
