Re: [squid-users] unexplainable MISSes (squid 2.7stable9)

Done some new tests and I found out that caching an URL that has a
different X-Username header will invalidate the other version of that
object.

Is this the intended behaviour? I mean, Vary header will just inform
there is a new version so everything else is discarded? If so, is there
a method for cacheing multiple versions of the same URL ?
