Hi, I created this (https://github.com/apache/httpcomponents-client/pull/77) pull request with a simple possible solution to this problem. It would be awesome if you could please take a look and validate whether the proposed fix valid or not. I’m more than happy to change whatever you think is necessary and reapply the fix on other branches after that.

The result I get back is the one I was expecting (regarding actually calling the origin for the entity or returning the cached instance - without making the request to the origin). The problem has to do with calling the datastore twice (which can pose as a problem specially when using an off-heap datastore). Jon, I created a gist where you can see the behaviour I’m talking about (https://gist.github.com/leandronunes85/c8f68ca556ac4121bdd956b2ae29c19f). In this example I’m using a facebook static resource with “Cache-Control: public,max-age=31536000,immutable”. In my exact use case I get back this header: "Cache-Control: max-age=600, public”. In both cases the behaviour is the same. The output from running the application in the gist is: op=getEntry, key='https://www.facebook.com:443/rsrc.php/v3/y4/r/gf6iHxsw8zm.png' op=getEntry, key='https://www.facebook.com:443/rsrc.php/v3/y4/r/gf6iHxsw8zm.png' op=getEntry, key='https://www.facebook.com:443/rsrc.php/v3/y4/r/gf6iHxsw8zm.png' op=getEntry, key='https://www.facebook.com:443/rsrc.php/v3/y4/r/gf6iHxsw8zm.png' op=putEntry, key='https://www.facebook.com:443/rsrc.php/v3/y4/r/gf6iHxsw8zm.png' CACHE_MISS - HTTP/1.1 200 OK - Cache-Control: public,max-age=31536000,immutable op=getEntry, key='https://www.facebook.com:443/rsrc.php/v3/y4/r/gf6iHxsw8zm.png' op=getEntry, key='https://www.facebook.com:443/rsrc.php/v3/y4/r/gf6iHxsw8zm.png' CACHE_HIT - HTTP/1.1 200 OK - Cache-Control: public,max-age=31536000,immutable op=getEntry, key='https://www.facebook.com:443/rsrc.php/v3/y4/r/gf6iHxsw8zm.png' op=getEntry, key='https://www.facebook.com:443/rsrc.php/v3/y4/r/gf6iHxsw8zm.png' CACHE_HIT - HTTP/1.1 200 OK - Cache-Control: public,max-age=31536000,immutable As you can see the datastore is being asked for the entity twice on cache hit (and 4 times (!) for cache misses). Thanks for any help you can provide, Leandro On May 17, 2017, at 12:39 AM, Jon Moore <j...@apache.org<mailto:j...@apache.org><mailto:j...@apache.org>> wrote: Yes, unfortunately I haven't had time to work on the caching module for several years, so I don't remember all the ins and outs of the implementation. However, Leandro, perhaps you could post the headers for the original request, the (cached) response, and then the subsequent request that gets a cache hit? If so, I can possibly help explain the behavior.

I did some debugging and it looks like the first one is related with flushing invalid entries and the second call is related with actually serving the request. My question is wether this is the expected behaviour or is something that has been overlooked and can/should be addressed? Thanks, Leandro Leandro HttpClient cache module desperately needs some attention. The best course of action should be to consult the RFC, fix the behavior if wrong, raise a PR at Github.
