HEAD request contributes total file size to bytes transferred

           Summary: HEAD request contributes total file size to bytes
                    transferred
           Product: Apache httpd-2.0
           Version: 2.0.48
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: mod_cache
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: james.richardson@db.com


Using mod_cache to cache files, and performing a HEAD request on a file that 
is in the cache, the "Total Traffic", and "MB/sec" figures on the server-
status page get updated to reflect the total size of the file, and not just 
the size of the headers. 
As the files on which we are doing the HEAD request are ~30Mb, it gives a very 
distorted view of bandwidth usage.
