Hello, After setting up varnish and starting it I looked at the statistics using varnsihstat. The timer in the left uppper corner seems to be the uptime since it last started or was flushed. When I loaded some pages, I can see the cache is working
But I notice that once every so often the cache seems to either flush itself or restart. During this 2-3 seconds that this happens I can not load any pages. Is there a default 'cash flush' value that makes this (for me undesirable) behavior happen? I added the example described in http://varnish.projects.linpro.no/wiki/VCLExampleLongerCaching to my vcl file, but if the cash flushes itself a couple of times per day then it defeats the purpose. I am using varnish-2.0.5-1.el5 on centos5 and use the default.vcl file with the above longer caching example added to it and ignore swf and pdf files. I start varnish with 40 MB of cache and test this with a few html pages and jpgs (less then 15 MB in size). During tests normally not more than 50% of the cache is used. Besides this issue varnish seems to work almost right out of the box.
