Yes.

Depends a bit on the collapsed_forwarding directive. Default is to only
join requests after the response headers have been received and it's
known the response can be cached. With collapsed_forwarding requests is
optimistically joined even if it's not yet known the response will be
cachable.

Configurable. maximum_object_size
