<div>I heard that the purge list is never actually cleared, and can grow to be really large over time. I use the purge quite a bit (which looks something like: purge ^/users).</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>It's not a bug, it's more a result of how the bans (that what they are called in Varnish 3.0) work. The bans will add to the list and bans are discarded when they are older then the oldest object in the cache. So if you have objects with really long TTLs and a lot of bans this list can get long.</div>
