If you are getting 30MB somebody is interfering with that download. It should be caching by default. The redbot tool shows the site is providing all the required cache headers and working perfectly for revalidation. The REFRESH_UNMODIFIED log entries show that too. The TCP_MISS_ABORTED indicates that for that log entry there was nothing in cache (yet) for that URL, and the client aborted the transfer with only 2.6MB fetched. Can you try having just one Pi do its update and seeing if the .xz object is cached afterwards? Alternatively try the command: squidclient http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/dists/buster/main/binary-armhf/Packages.xz It the object is cacheable, but your environment tends to have the Pi's all fetching at the same time (eg before the first finishes), then you may find collapsed_forwarding feature of use. That helps with caching parallel fetches of objects.
