By default, squid won't use parents (or sibling) caches on objects that
are not cacheable. www.myipaddress.com sets cookies, redirects and has
no freshness information available. In short, it's VERY
cache-unfriendly. Look into the nonhierarchical_direct or never_direct
settings in squid.conf to mitigate this.
