Source inspection has found a bug in this area based on your description
of the problem. no-cache is blindly ignored if the object is currently
being retrieved by Squid.

What this means is that if for some reason one request for the object gets
stuck mid-way, then any new client requests will get stuck on the same
until the first times out.

Please file a bug report for this issue.

Note: Making sure quick_abort is configured to abort as aggressively as
possible (which is the opposite of being disabled) and having
half_closed_clients off greatly helps redusing the risk of running into
this problem.

Henrik
