HTTP/1.1 has extensions for websites to assign cacheability
information to individual http objects.
A good place to start is http://www.mnot.net/cache_docs/ .
Generally speaking, its better if they set the expiry times to the data
granularity. Ie, if their stock information is updated every
30 seconds, then set the content expiry to be every 30 seconds.
