Header size

Hi,
Sometime ago I posted a message concerning the "bytes" field in the native
format access logs of Squid 1.1. Under certain conditions (depending
upon the code/status combination), this "bytes" field will be equal to the
size of the document returned to the client + some header size.

I was told that this header size does not remain constant, even for a
particular cache-result-code/HTTP status combination. By looking at a few
lines in the logs, I could confirm that.

But, can somebody tell me why the header size is not a constant?
TIA,
Gawesh
