Squid by default regards objects which can not be refreshed (no cache validator, i.e. Last-Modified) and expiring withing 60 seconds as worthless to cache. You can tune this with the minimum_expiry_time directive. Alternatively have your program emit a meaningful Last-Modified header making Squid think that the object can be validated for freshness.
