> I am trying to use the httpclient-cache component with a Cassandra backend. Everything seems good except that HttpCacheStorage#getEntry is getting called 3 times the first time resulting in a performance bottleneck. There might be a way to handle this in the Storage implementation by caching the recently queried values but I think that a better place is in the CachingHttpClient class. The current code expects zero latency to the storage backend(the current implementations are all memory based) but here is a patch that fixes the problem. Some notes:
> * I am using the code from the 4.2.5 release(but can port the code to the current trunk)
> * test is provided in org.apache.http.impl.client.cache.TestCachingHttpClient
> * BasicHttpCache is patched to expose methods that check if the key is found or if a proper variant is found - without this there is no way to say if there was a real cache miss or the specific variant is missing
> * CachingHttpClient is checking if the current HttpCache implementation is BasicHttpCache so it can use the new methods - I didn't want to change the interface because this will add breaking changes to the API
