Don't quit understand 'statements'. Just about every cache on the planet
is configured differently. Some may not obey the web standards.
In general HTTP has a set of headers that control what the server wants
to have happen to its pages, and caches obey those, removing objects
when they are accessed and found in need of replacement ('stale').
