Hi folks,<br><br>We have a newly deployed Varnish installation (v2.0.4 on Debian 5.0 64-bit). Our hitrate is pretty good (80%+) and the load on the server is consistently 0.00. The cache size is 50G and the TTL is set to basically cache things indefinitely (it's set to like 1000 years, I think).<br>
<br>I got a complaint from a user that some percentage of his page views seem too slow to be coming from the cache. I brought up our home page and started refreshing it over and over. Sure enough, while most of the page views are in fact getting cached, once every 5 or 6 times, I get a cache miss. When this happens, varnishlog shows something like this:<br>
<br> 32 VCL_call c recv lookup<br> 32 VCL_call c hash hash<br><b> 32 ExpBan c 1607291667 was banned<br></b> 32 VCL_call c miss fetch<br><br>I apologize if my google-fu is broken today, but I can't seem to find a description of what the message above means. I would certainly appreciate any information (or links) that would help explain this message and how to prevent the problem going forward.<br>
<br>Thanks and regards,<br>Martin<br>
