Hello Nils, I briefly read Tollef's softban patch. Softban (including softpurge) only set ttl to 0, but does not trigger a fetch immediately. The user will get the graced object and then varnish will fetch a new object.
"hash_always_expire" is treat all objects as expired and trigger a bgfetch at the same time. This is like a object refresh, but an improved version of "hash_always_miss". So the next user will receive the new content if bgfetch finishes.
