Jusrt to repeat my hypothesis.  HLS and DASH are chunked http so an
audio stream is made up of 3-6sec chunks of audio each sent as a
separate http request as compared to the older http stream which is sent
as a single http fetch.

So chunked http will generate very many small http responses (possibly
up to say 1200/hr) each of which will be cached by LMS for a time
(default is 1h).  As CDN servers load share there may also be 
additional DNS caching as well.  I am running a test anfd will then
update plugin when I have a solution.
