Squid will not cache anything which will expire within less than a
minute and for which Squid can not verify with the origin server if the
cached copy is still up to date.

If Squid can verify with the origin server if the cached copy is correct
then objects which expire in less than 1 minute will also be cached.
This generally requires the object to have a known Last-Modified
timestamp, allowing Squid to issue a If-Modified-Since request to verify
the cached copy.
