Speed brain shouldn't hit the origin, but it does
So after speed brain was enabled on a free zone we started to see some odd behaviour where som actions are performed multiple times in our application. This is partly our fault for having GET requests "do" stuff but on the other hand we finally tracked it down to Speed Brain causing the links to be prefetched.
However reading: https://developers.cloudflare.com/speed/optimization/content/speed-brain/#caveats
Prefetch requests will never reach origin servers.This seems to be a invalid statement for us. I have logs showing the prefetch header set by Chrome hitting our origins and disabling Speed Brains stops the behaviour immediately. So intentially or not it is causing behaviour it shouldn't. I have no clue where/how to report this. But it seems like there are still some kinks to work out 🙂
