Will Varnish keep multiple generations of objects that expire, and potentially wait with LRU eviction until it gets closer to the known sensible maximum memory allocation (the host has 128GB RAM)? We do have a limited number of (smallish) objects cached for 5 seconds as a somewhat desperate means of shielding our application servers, but the amount of pages we cache in this way in no way rhymes with the enormous amount of data kept by Varnish in transient storage. All other objects are stored for a substantially longer time (i.e. weeks and above) and should not come into play here. Putting things into perspective - the transient storage is currently almost as big as the full on-disk storage of 6 years of data, and given that this is a newspaper, 95% of the on-disk data would be long-tail and hardly ever accessed.
