When handling the second client request, can you allow Squid to ask the
origin server whether the content is still the same as it was when the
first client downloaded it? If you can, will the origin server respond
with a 304 (Not Modified) to Squid's conditional request?

When handling this "next time" request, can you allow Squid to ask the
origin server whether the content is still the same as it was when the
first client downloaded it? If you can, will the origin server respond
with the fresh content to Squid's conditional request?
