Chill out, most of the people are in vacation :-)

So, in varnish, by default, if the request contains a cookie, the cache is
bypassed.

But you can also force a pass, for example if the request contains a
"foo-bar" header like so :

sub vcl_recv {
   if (req.http.foo-bar) {
      return (pass);
   }
}

For your needs, look at the query string and cookie vmods, it will allow to
really fine-tune your workflow.

And should you need more help, we are here :-)
