the problem was iirc in caching partial objects

that problem could be avoided with properly setting range_offset_limit
http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/range_offset_limit/
but that also means that whole files instead of just their parts are
fetched.

it's quite possible that microsoft changed the windows updates to be smaller
files, but I don't know anything about this, so I wonder if you really do
cache windows updates, and how does the caching work related to informations
above...

    yes, i'm definitely caching windows update files !!

[root@firewall ~]# cd /var/squid/
[root@firewall squid]# for i in `find . -type f`; do strings $i | head -3 | grep "http://";; done | grep windowsupdate | wc -l
824

    and yes, i had to configure range_offset_limit:

range_offset_limit 500 MB updates
minimum_object_size 500 KB
maximum_object_size 500 MB
quick_abort_min -1

(being 'updates' the ACL with the URLs to be cached, basically windowsupdate and avast definition updates - the second one required further tweaks with storeid_rewrite for the CDN URLs)

from access.log, i see a lot of TCP_HIT/206 (and just a few TCP_HIT/200), so it seems squid is able to get the fully cached file and provide the smaller pieces requested:

[root@firewall squid]# grep "TCP_HIT/" access.log | grep windowsupdate | wc -l
9860
[root@firewall squid]# bzcat access.log.20150927.bz2 | grep "TCP_HIT/" | grep windowsupdate | wc -l
38584

having squid to download the WHOLE file at the very first request (even a partial request) may be bad, but considering it will be used later to provide the data for other requests, even partial ones, make things a little better.

(this windowsupdate caching is running just for a few weeks, i expect HITs to grow a little more)
