hi,

I'm having excellent results using a basic varnish config on a large 
traffic site (200-250 Mbps), now i want to step up using ESI on my 
dynamic pages, but i try the ESI example on varnish wiki, with no luck.

test.html:

<HTML>
<BODY>
The time is: <esi:include src="/cgi-bin/date.cgi"/>
at this very moment.
</BODY>
</HTML>

date.cgi:
#!/bin/sh

echo 'Content-type: text/html'
echo ''
date "+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M"


vcl:
sub vcl_fetch {

    if (req.url == "/test.html") {
        esi;  /* Do ESI processing */
        set obj.ttl = 24 h;
    } elseif (req.url == "/cgi-bin/date.cgi") {
        set obj.ttl = 1m;
    }
}

I get date.cgi correctly, but esi include seems to be executed just once 
(no change on date info), any hint?

Thanks in advance,

FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE amd64
varnishd (varnish-2.1.3 SVN )
