Investigate technologies API performance

rviscomi opened this issue · 5 comments

On https://httparchive.org/reports/techreport/drilldown, I'm consistently seeing the technologies endpoint taking about 3 seconds to respond.

This blocks the main "Technology" dropdown UI from showing the list of technologies, and it gets stuck only having one "ALL" option.

Is there anything we can do to speed up the response?

Can we also add cache-control headers to these? Even for a short while so it doesn't need to hit the server every single time when you're browsing around the site.

@maceto have you had a chance to look at this?

Hi @rviscomi , I couldn't reproduce the 3 seconds response.

Yeah definitely seems faster now. Sure you didn't fix it already as was definitely slow before :-)
