Age
The HTTP Age
response header indicates the time in seconds for which an object was in a proxy cache.
The header value is usually close to zero.
If the value is 0
, the object was probably fetched from the origin server; otherwise, the value is usually calculated as a difference between the proxy's current date and the Date
general header included in the HTTP response.
