1027833 - CSP should de-dupe reports

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core :: Security, enhancement, P4)

Description

[Daniel Veditz [:dveditz]]

To reduce load on reporting servers CSP should batch report generation and suppress duplicate reports. We could possibly set up a singleton reporter that de-dupes per session or per time chunk (so re-visits to the same page are not reported). If we're worried about that using a lot of memory for its cache we could just batch reports per document and throw it away when the CSP object goes away.

Sid says this work will have to wait until the conversion to the new CSP back-end is complete.

There wasn't much interest in this from folks on the working group. Maybe we'll revisit the idea in the future.
