Hi there: I'm having some problems understanding how the refresh_pattern options works. The Squid guide says: FRESH if expires < now, else STALE STALE if age > max FRESH if lm-factor < percent, else STALE FRESH if age < min else STALE Min: time (in minutes), an object without an explicit expire time should be considered fresh. Percent: percentage of the objects age (time since last modification age) an object without explicit expire time will be considered fresh. Max: upper limit on how long objects without an explicit expiry time will be considered fresh. So, my question is this; if the object's age is between Min and Max, is it STALE or FRESH? And how does the Percent option exactly works? Thanks a lot! Nicolas Cavedale IAM Administrator IBM Argentina S.A.
