I'd assume the 304 was probably someone pressing refresh in a browser,
it'll cause a conditional get (either based on Etag or last-modified)
which would result in a 304. IIRC it's also possible to have wget/curl
do revalidations as well, though not sure why you'd want to in this
instance.

I wouldn't be surprised if the 404's were also a browser attempting to
get a favicon.
