While I agree with you, the quantity of robots has greatly increased of late. While still not as numerous as users, they are hitting every link and wrecking your caches by not focusing on hotspots like humans do.
You need a bigger cache. If you dont have enough RAM, host it on a CDN
Sure thing! Help me pay for it?
