Sounds like you're interested in stale-while-revalidate [1]. It does not appear to be supported in ATS, but is implemented in Squid [2] and works quite well.

The use case is when we are experiencing issues with the origin server I would like to serve stale content (compared to nothing) and then get ats to refresh it in the background instead of holding traffic up. Thanks Mav
