Good day Guys

Im trying to get to grips and understand caching.

So I can see nginx caching wonderfully (all in all everything is 
working), but for my own understanding and peeking under the hood.

I just decided to see what inside one of the cache files and one of the 
things that got my attention was

cat /storage/imgcache/2/05/f8484e99c2d4e7659020a0fa96a22052

KEY: 
httpGETdomain.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2016/09/B15J5GB3364-168x112.jpg?5152e3


So here now is my question, if I do :

bclark at bclark:~$ curl -I 
http://domain/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2016/09/B15J5GB3364-168x112.jpg?5152e3
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

X-Cache-Status: MISS
Accept-Ranges: bytes

See the X-Cache-Status.

Does anyone know why it says MISS?

If I run the same curl command again, it says HIT.

Many thanks

Brent
