Enabled caching of static files in nginx using fastcgi_cache. Is it possible to somehow prevent files larger than, say, 10 MB from getting into the cache?

Answering the previous answerer: for example, in order not to clog the cache with files, about which it is known in advance that they either will not fit into the cache, or do not make up a significant part of the load (and will force out their small brothers with each request).
And as far as I know, there is no such option ..
And directio is about a completely different cache.
