FWIW, from debug logs in cache.log, it seems like PUT responses are being cached. I am fairly new to using squid so I am be completely misreading these. Just trying to understand caching. So are PUT responses cached by design? or am I completely missing something simple here? :) <logs> 2014/02/17 00:06:54.977 kid1| store_dir.cc(1149) get: storeGet: looking up AC671962CFC5644F4B22DA51C242DA50 2014/02/17 00:06:54.977 kid1| StoreMap.cc(293) openForReading: opening entry with key AC671962CFC5644F4B22DA51C242DA50 for reading /mnt/squid-cache_inodes 2014/02/17 00:06:54.977 kid1| StoreMap.cc(309) openForReadingAt: opening entry 14877 for reading /mnt/squid-cache_inodes 2014/02/17 00:06:54.977 kid1| StoreMap.cc(322) openForReadingAt: cannot open empty entry 14877 for reading /mnt/squid-cache_inodes 2014/02/17 00:06:54.977 kid1| store_dir.cc(820) find: none of 1 cache_dirs have AC671962CFC5644F4B22DA51C242DA50 2014/02/17 00:06:54.977 kid1| client_side_reply.cc(1626) identifyFoundObject: StoreEntry is NULL - MISS 2014/02/17 00:06:54.977 kid1| client_side_reply.cc(622) processMiss: clientProcessMiss: 'PUT https://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/mag-1363987602-cmbogo/334677ce-9882104' 2014/02/17 00:06:54.977 kid1| store.cc(803) storeCreatePureEntry: storeCreateEntry: 'https://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/mag-1363987602-cmbogo/334677ce-9882104' 2014/02/17 00:06:54.977 kid1| store.cc(395) StoreEntry: StoreEntry constructed, this=0x168f990 </logs> ... and later <logs> 2014/02/17 00:06:55.127 kid1| store_dir.cc(820) find: none of 1 cache_dirs have DBA199D500F44928560537BB0CAB0908 2014/02/17 00:06:55.127 kid1| refresh.cc(319) refreshCheck: checking freshness of 'https://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/mag-1363987602-cmbogo/334677ce-9882104' 2014/02/17 00:06:55.127 kid1| refresh.cc(340) refreshCheck: Matched '. 7776000 100%% 7776000' 2014/02/17 00:06:55.127 kid1| refresh.cc(342) refreshCheck: age: 60 2014/02/17 00:06:55.127 kid1| refresh.cc(344) refreshCheck: check_time: Mon, 17 Feb 2014 08:07:55 GMT 2014/02/17 00:06:55.127 kid1| refresh.cc(346) refreshCheck: entry->timestamp: Mon, 17 Feb 2014 08:06:55 GMT 2014/02/17 00:06:55.127 kid1| refresh.cc(202) refreshStaleness: No explicit expiry given, using heuristics to determine freshness 2014/02/17 00:06:55.128 kid1| refresh.cc(240) refreshStaleness: FRESH: age (60 sec) is less than configured minimum (7776000 sec) 2014/02/17 00:06:55.128 kid1| refresh.cc(366) refreshCheck: Staleness = -1 2014/02/17 00:06:55.128 kid1| refresh.cc(486) refreshCheck: Object isn't stale.. 2014/02/17 00:06:55.128 kid1| refresh.cc(501) refreshCheck: returning FRESH_MIN_RULE 2014/02/17 00:06:55.128 kid1| http.cc(491) cacheableReply: YES because HTTP status 200 2014/02/17 00:06:55.128 kid1| HttpRequest.cc(696) storeId: sent back canonicalUrl:https://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/mag-1363987602-cmbogo/334677ce-9882104 2014/02/17 00:06:55.128 kid1| store.cc(472) hashInsert: StoreEntry::hashInsert: Inserting Entry e:=p2DV/0x168f990*3 key 'AC671962CFC5644F4B22DA51C242DA50' 2014/02/17 00:06:55.128 kid1| ctx: exit level 0 2014/02/17 00:06:55.128 kid1| store.cc(858) write: storeWrite: writing 17 bytes for 'AC671962CFC5644F4B22DA51C242DA50' </logs> On Sun, Feb 16, 2014 at 11:07 PM, Rajiv Desai <rajiv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > What is the authoritative source of cache statistics?
