Will look that up when I have time later. > > Amos So, after I read your first reply, I responded with a quick snippet of log file that came from the logging level 85,3, it looked like: """QUOTEING ANOTHER EMAIL""" 2015/10/28 09:16:54.075| 85,3| client_side_request.cc(532) hostHeaderIpVerify: FAIL: validate IP 208.82.238.226:80 possible from Host: 2015/10/28 09:16:54.075| 85,3| client_side_request.cc(543) hostHeaderVerifyFailed: SECURITY ALERT: Host header forgery detected on local=208.82.238.226:80 remote=192.168.2.56 FD 20 flags=17 (local IP does not match any domain IP) on URL: http://seattle.craigslist.org/favicon.ico """ END QUOTE """ Based on my reading of http://wiki.squid-cache.org/KnowledgeBase/HostHeaderForgery it appears this is actually intended behavior. That also explains why it is being released and was found non-cacheable. So, I just installed dnsmasq on two of my servers, pointed my clients toward that address, and so far it is working a whoel lot better. My hit rate is up in the 10% range, and that is with a nearly empty cache, so that may be the trick. I only made the change about a short time ago. More importantly, that error in the log has gone away and I am getting consistent caching behavior, so that is huge.
