Dear all,

I have a Varnish 3 installation pointing to an Apache Server. Any manual of how to tune Varnish, OS, Apache and any manual of how to test Varnish

Have you worked through
https://www.varnish-cache.org/docs/3.0/tutorial/increasing_your_hitrate.html
yet?

Sorry I haven't replied for so long. I was trying to make sense of the docs.

From my munin monitoring and varnishstat it seems I'm getting around 80% of hitrate in my Varnish cache. This Varnish cache has a remote Apache backup (Varnish is in a server in Europe while Apache is in a server in the US.

How can I pinpoint why is not working fast?

It seems one of the issues was that pingdom was misleading because It always reported all tests were resulting into a MISS instead of a HIT. Checking with wget -S gave some real information.

Also normalizing user agents could help when it comes to caching images and certain files:

http://serverfault.com/questions/365056/varnish-only-cache-assets-from-single-session

this seems to have increased the hitrate

Regards,

Miguel
