Hello,
is it possible to refresh/revalidate the squid cache asynchronously?
That means if a client triggers a refresh of an object stored in the cache,
could this request be served (with old data) from the cache and the refresh
done in the background?
Actually if a refresh happens the client is staled until squid requested all
data from the backend.
RFC 5861 Cache-Control: stale-while-revalidate
Squid-2.7 was the evaluation code for that whole RFC.
It is on the roadmap for 3.2 but has not quite made it there yet.
