This is almost a month after the configuration change to

cleanup_freq = 1d
max_age = 40d

In the meantime, I had updated all machines that live from this cache. And
I have seen quite a bit of trouble, as the /var file system is full to the
brim. In the days of trouble, "apt-get cleanup" was my friend.

This morning, I finally ran

  find /var/cache/apt-proxy -type f -name \*.deb -atime +40 -print0 |
  xargs -0 -r rm

That did free up some 4 GB of data.

In other words, the configuration change has still not taken effect, not
even a month after the inital change. And I had the computer switched on
for some time almost every day since then.

Finally, /var will start to function again.

However, I do not know whether this has now utterly confused my apt-cache
setup. Will it just work, or will my bold "solution" earn me apt-proxy
problems?

A first test has been hopeful. As far as I can see, apt-cache still works.

Regards, and thank you for providing fine software

Andreas
