Graham -- related subject brought up either in Denver or in the bug. It seems that when we serve a stale file while the cache is locked, the age headers are small instead of large. I got totally lost trying to track down the issue, maybe it makes sense to you? It's almost as if they time of the revalidation is somehow updated early and the delta in the stale cache hits is based off of that. -- Eric Covener cove...@gmail.com
