[squid-users] TIMEOUT_FIRST_PARENT_MISS

I have a simple hierarchy with 3 caches - one child and two parents.
Either parent can serve any request, the configuration is set up for
redundancy purposes.

Fairly often I'm seeing log messages stating 'TIMEOUT_FIRST_PARENT_MISS'
- I'm not sure what this is referring to. The proxy that is usually
implicated is also the faster of the two (network-wise) and usually ends
up fulfilling all the requests that are going through.

I'm assuming this message means that the parent timed out somehow but it
seems like pages are still getting delivered properly? The majority of
the requests being served do not have this message but the fact that it
is happening at all is a little concerning to me.
