Re: [squid-users] object not being cached

Hi,

I identify that it is not cached ( or maybe cached but not served
from the cache !) when looking at the logs : it is always a TCP_MISS
when getting this object + it is reported in the X-Cache header
whenever I get the object with wget :

wget -e http_proxy=X.X.X.X:3128 -S

More info. Here is the squid.conf file ( squid v 3.2.11 ). I striped
down some ACLs so that it is more readable ( I hope ).
So yes SMP with 4 workers.
