cache.log says
2013/08/07 08:47:51| 222094 Entries scanned
2013/08/07 08:47:51| 0 Invalid entries.
2013/08/07 08:47:51| 0 With invalid flags.
2013/08/07 08:47:51| 222094 Objects loaded.

[root_at_hades squid]# find . -type f | wc -l
222087

if those objects that are not on disk get requested again, will squid fetch
them from parent server and try again to cache them to disk?
