Chrome is not cachig content served by SSL

I'm developing a web site and i have setting up the following structure in production eviroment:

NGINX (listening 443,proxy_pass) -> Varnish (listening 80) -> NGINX (listenig 8080).

So i can serve via https cached content.

The problem is that i have noticed that google crome is not caching locally content served via SSL (Firefox does)

When i pointed to the 80 port , both, Firefox and Chrome caches the content but chrome does not cache when try 443.

Those are the headers i get for a testing image:

Serving by HTTP

Anyone knows if this may be a config problem with my servers, or maybe its a chrome normal way of deal with SSL conections?

Thanks

Finally i found the problem.

i remove from the response headers the "Vary: cookies" header and now chrome is locally caching the content served via HTTPS
