Tracking Bug?
Does anyone have a good candidate for a tracking bug on this issue? My bugzilla fu is weak enough that I couldn't really find an obvious one.

TTL Based Strategies
Would this force the URLs for the thumbnails to include the time at which the source was uploaded or the version of the source? Do they do that already? NEverett (WMF) (talk) 12:40, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Similar to the sliding window, could we bump the TTL on a percentage of varnish hits? That'd mostly keep the TTL on popular items high. We could also combine the ideas in either order. The random check should be quick. I don't know about the bump the TTL process or the sliding window check process. NEverett (WMF) (talk) 12:40, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
