[squid-users] Mirror sites

Hi,

I would just like to know. When downloading a file from a site say for
example a link like so: http://host1.example.com/test.zip and the file
has a size say 300kb (and timestamp 2006/01/01 ?) and then downloading
the same file from another (mirror) site say
http://host2.example.com/test.zip with the filesize also at 300kb and
the same timestamp Will squid redownload the file? Or will it be
"clever" enough to say that I've already downloaded that file, I'll send
you the cached version? Do timestamps matter? Does squid just check
the filesizes and filenames?

Thanks
Nolan
