This favicon has no useful headers for cache: https://ad.atdmt.com/favicon.ico The headers for this file are: HTTP/2 200 content-type: image/x-icon date: Mon, 27 Mar 2017 17:36:51 GMT content-length: 1150 As a result, ComputeFreshnessLifetime [1] returns 0. I think we should have an heuristic to get some freshness for those files as it could help performance in some cases.
