Odds are that your “origin” is not sending appropriate Cache-Control headers. 
Even the default storage.config should have a small cache. HTTPD (Apache) would 
by default not send any cache-control headers. If you don’t want to change 
that, you can set 

    CONFIG proxy.config.http.cache.required_headers INT 1    # Or 0, but that’s 
kinda crazy in general


Also, from your above config, this is almost always a bad idea (it becomes an 
open proxy at this point):

    CONFIG proxy.config.url_remap.remap_required INT 0
