Hi,

I'm caching for a short period of time a large number of delayed stock market 
data web service requests which ordinarily were being requested from the 
upstream data provider every time by the app layer.  I have various 
refresh_patterns stipulated for the different types of requests, i.e. data that 
compiles a 3 month chart can be kept for several hours ,  a price quote for 
just a few minutes etc.  

Whilst the volume of traffic to our site does drop after market hours and over 
the weekend, we would benefit hugely if I could invoke different refresh 
patterns after market close and over the weekend since I know at that point the 
data can be pulled from cache until the market next opens.

Is there a way to do this within acl or refresh_pattern  or do I need to have 
two squid configs and cron a --reconfigure at the relevant times?

Thanks,

Tim
