The "HIT" status means that a response was returned from cache.
Since there is no request to the upstream server, no upstream
times are expected to be available. The $request_time variable
counts time between reading the first byte of a request from the
socket and writing the last byte of the response to the socket.
As long as socket buffers are large enough, this can happen in one
event loop iteration, so times like "0.000" are pretty normal for
small responses.

The "STALE" status means that the response was returned from
cache, as per "proxy_cache_use_stale". And this implies that
there will be no upstream times, much like with "HIT".

Note well that if you are using "proxy_cache_background_update",
which uses subrequests to update cache, the main request will have
the "STALE" status, and there will be no upstream times as
explained above, but $request_time will still include subrequest
execution time. If you want to see subrequest details in log,
including upstream times, consider the "log_subrequest"
configuration directive (http://nginx.org/r/log_subrequest).
