It's not a bug, it's a design artefact. The stub and the object is separate from each other, so there is only 1/N probability they will end up on the same cache_dir just as for any other two objects (assuming none of the max-/min-size options is used). The risk of loosing the object due to loss of another cache_dir is not considered important. > * how does squid determine which of several cache_dirs has an object > after a restart...

Most likely the client forced a refresh of the object using Control-Reload or similar. Regards Henrik
