Description

XHR requests made by the SSR server get stored in the XHR_CACHE. The socket.io client isn't aware of it, so it makes the same requests again instead of using the cached ones.

Based on the meeting notes in the next comment, we need to make a behavior specifically for SSR that...

  1. Uses XHR requests on the server. The existing CanZone plugin for handling XHRs will populate the XHR_CACHE.
  2. Uses XHR requests on the client before re-attachment of the client app to the SSR-rendered DOM. These XHR requests will check the XHR_CACHE.
  3. Allows the client to fall through to using another behavior (in our case the feathers behavior) on the client AFTER re-attachment.
