I thought it obvious that, once I show an entry from the log, I have entire log and, of course, that this is only part of the transaction, which sees the whole entire proxy. However, this is nothing more than word games, Alex. The question is - can we more or less significant differences from known what hit proxy code level and / or transactions which, obviously, on the proxy level, we can see in its entirety. > > > >> So, if we've already done request to the same URL in the past, got >> TCP_MISS, then get again, _and_ has saved copy in cache, _and_ we're got >> 304 - this is hit.

There is no many definitions of hit. We are talking about the caching proxy, which is basically no different from all the other caches, and subject to the same rules. _If the first access does not find an object in the cache, it requests from the network, saves in the cache, and re-treatment or gets a hit, "the object is not changed." Dot. Further. If the time in the cache object lifetime expires, or a lifetime on the server timed out - the object is requested again and a miss is recorded._ The fact that we do not know that there is a client with the object? It is not our business. It is the client's problem. If the client cache get miss for an object that no longer exists or its lifetime has expired - he asks his proxy. Proxy, in the future, or fixes hit or miss. Thus, if the proxy responds to the client "has not changed", it means, in fact, that the client has a copy of the object and a copy of the proxy object, the proxy and responds to the client, performing REFRESH that the object did not change. What is this, if not hit? > > > Alex. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJX/+QeAAoJENNXIZxhPexGXaUH/0b+UkESSCj/oFxSSOfyJyJJ IcqBxSWh8A9H6AQKco2i8P7Gjlr7oAGZsbF3YS+Gzr3F0ixVIBHdTOW5aXrhjWzm wyLeeZsmLh7vD4sSAA3IbO9xvvG01sIWnRekagdpE/Smg7tJNoGC84GInQKbEsCm 2wMrdhb7sxE56kc9OmpcYZ7RghwWr0rqSZZ0S62xW0jSkffbUBUTiyRPQox+uZ9a YCwZ9Ant+6+yrNzoMA9Yn2ujRD7OvuIlsC/pNZ4GqyIU5NJ+wjvfdbt6rx5l/dcr DICdfi/adNegw9vF9DG4lm9i2joGFo7+OPzKoQeyuO3f7bLSdyxGapxIVWjTNr8= =jHaY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
