Squid is currently able to collapse HTTP client [miss] requests (but not internally generated HTTP requests triggered by HTTP client requests). Furthermore, to be collapsable, the request must have no markings that make the future response uncachable. > With your extra information, my assumption would > be that it only applies on requests of a resource that has never been > cached before. I would not phrase it like that because Squid does not remember was has been cached before, only what is still cached at the query time. There are three primary cases for an HTTP client request to consider here: * pure cache hit: Collapsing is inapplicable because Squid does not send any requests (there is nothing to collapse). Each HTTP client request is satisfied from the Squid cache. * pure cache miss: Multiple requests for the same missing object can be collapsed if collapsed_forwarding is enabled. Collapsable requests have no markings that make the future response uncachable. * revalidation: The requested object was found in the cache but it was stale. Squid sends an internal "revalidation" request to the origin server or peer. These internal requests are currently not collapsed. We are working on collapsing them as well. > Secondly would you have a suggestion for solving the issue I'm facing? I have not studied the issue you are facing, but if you think collapsing revalidation requests would solve your problem, then either wait for us to finish initial collapsed revalidation support (and then see if it solves your problem) or co-sponsor that ongoing development (to make sure it solves your problem).
