Hi Ric,

Personally, I would examine response headers first before diving into
varnish stats and logs. Both CacheFu and Varnish will add headers to
the response telling you what it's doing, whether it's getting the
content from cache or whether it's pulling it from the backend. This
is usually all you need to know to diagnose 95% of cache issues.
Response headers are:

From this I assume that Varnish is indeed caching.
Still, slower performance than I'd expect.
Cheers, Jim
You've got two different requests represented here. Both are
conditional requests (If-None-Match and If-Modified-Since) which tells
me that you have both items cached in the browser and your browser is
just revalidating both. Neither response is delivering from the
varnish cache, although the second is getting a validation response
from varnish.
The first request is passed through to Plone and Plone response with a
304 Not Modified response to your validation request. The second
request finds a cached entry in Varnish but also returns a 304 Not
Modified response.
The Varnish header contains one or two numbers. The first is just the
id of the current transaction, the second only shows up if there is a
delivery from the cache and it just shows the id of the previous
transaction that put the item in the cache. So if you have one
number, no cache hit.
Ric
