      use the tool at http://redbot.org on some of the URL which you believe
should cache.

   2b) the client software may be sending such headers. There were some
versions of chrome which were known to send no-cache on every single
request.

Two problems with that:
F5 (force-reload) is a method for users to retry and get a working page load after some error. It sends headers requesting fresh new non-cached content to avoid any proxy created problem in the previous load. The config which you posted did not have the ignore-cc option for http_port to ignore the client headers.


Also, "server side caching" in all the definitions I can find easily are not relevant to proxies. They are describing systems that operate solely *internally* to the web server application. At most they provide a way to send the correct cacheability headers outward.
