[squid-users] Squid 3.5 https facebook caching

[Eliezer Croitoru]

Just to add:

Facebook has these headers for many of their videos:

 1.
    Cache-Control:
    max-age=1209600, no-transform


So what happens is that the client browser will save these URLs for a 
very long time and it's good.

It takes of burden from the intermediate proxy.

I wrote some code that works for most of the facebook public videos at:

Hope it helps.
