1960833 - Suggestion Network Traffic Performance telemtrety cached requests management

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox :: Search, enhancement)

Description

[Adrian Florinescu [:aflorinescu]]

Following the traffic when suggestions api is triggered for various engines, the following categories have been observed:

1. No cache

• google.com: no cached (304) suggestion requests
• duckduckgo.com: no cached (304) suggestion requests
• ebay.com: no cached (304) suggestion requests
• ecosia.org no cached (304) suggestions requests
• seznam.cz no cached (304) suggestions requests
• naver-kr no cached (304) suggestions requests
• salidzini.lv no cached (304) suggestions requests

2. Cached requests

• qwant.com: cached (304) suggestion requests

3. Cached, but status returned is 200

• en.wikipedia.com: cached transfer, status is still 200
• bing.com: cached transfer, status is still 200
• LEO Eng-Deu cached, but with status 200

Note:

• daum-kr unknown if cached requests - suggestions api seems to be either slow or malfunctioning - in the sense that there seems to be something like ~50% suggestions api aborting, immediately after a 200, I can see 1 or 2 aborts, regardless if triggering the same keyword suggestion or just typing normally

For the foreseeable future, we won't have an urgent need to resolve the cached requests from Qwant.
