Content definitely should not be served from the cache after it has
expired imo. However I think an approach like;
if((now + interval) > expired) {
if(!stat(tmpfile)) {
update_cache_from_backend();
}
}
ie "revalidate the cache content after N-seconds before it is due to be
expired" would have the same effect, but avoid serving stale content.
Does that make sense?
