nginx 1.8.0 http_proxy cache issues

Hi,

I'm using nginx 1.8.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

# nginx -V

nginx version: nginx/1.8.0
built with OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014
TLS SNI support enabled

I have noticed that when I restart nginx (using restart or just simple stop
and then start) the cache is not invalidated as it used to be.
After each restart I get HIT for all pages that were valid in cache before
the restart.
Did anyone else noticed this behavior ? If yes, how did you fix it?
