[squid-users] i was wondering about the refresh_pattern Age percentage more then 100%

i have seen refresh_pattern with Age percentage more then 100% and my
question was:

does that percentage does an extending to the expiration time?

or squid has maximum of 100% limit?

i have seen people writing unreasonable and ridiculously patterns for
cache like:

refresh_pattern -i (get_video\?|videoplayback\?|videodownload\?) 5259487 999% 5259487 override-expire ignore-reload reload-into-ims ignore-no-cache ignore-private

it means "save the file for 3652(days) = 5259487(minutes)/60/24" am i right?

no harming anyone but it seems kind of weird.

i understand that there are situations that this is needed.

Thanks Eliezer
