463967 - [BUGZILLA] Don't fetch CC list or attachment data when getting bug info

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Webtools Graveyard :: Mozbot, defect)

Description

[Wolf [:wolf]]

The bugzilla module should exclude the CC list, and comments from the retrieved XML by using the excludefield param, so the retrieved document is smaller, faster to fetch, and puts less load on the remote server.

For long bugs, like bug 18574, the request actually times out and nothing is returned.

Attachment: Exclude attachmentdata and CC list from FetchBug

Comments are already excluded, but attachmentdata and the CC list aren't, and those can get quite large for active bugs.. Also considered excluding flags and attachments themselves, but the gain for the former was minimal and if/when bug 463451 is fixed, attachments might be needed again anyway, and if not, it can be removed in a followup, if it matters (its a small speed increase at best.)
