Not familiar with that solution, but curious why if the only condition is negative and then disabling why the default behavior wouldn't be disabled and then you enable the cache for your specific condition. If you rework the iRule to enable the cache when the static content is detected, do you see a difference?

    CACHE::enable
  }
}
