> This plugin will let you decide at cache write time if you really want to 
> allow the object to get into cache or not. Once in cache, it'll of course 
> continue to be served out of cache. The typical use case here is for a small 
> cache, where the tail-end content is huge. Instead of churning the disks, we 
> only allow to write objects to cache if they are "popular" enough.
> The first implementation only implements a very simple statistical policy, 
> ChancePolicy() which takes a percentage argument. So, you give it a 
> percentage, say 5%, which means there's a 5% chance that the response gets 
> written to cache. 95% of the time the requests will go to origin instead.
> Caveat: There's an unfortunate problem with the APIs I was hoping to use, so 
> right now it can only make the decision to write to cache or not in the 
> TS_HTTP_READ_RESPONSE_HDR_HOOK hook using TSHttpTxnServerRespNoStoreSet(txnp, 
> 1);
