Description

Seems that Firefox (around version 96-97) changed somethign and is now way more aggresive when a gateway does not start returning response immediately.

For example, first load (empty ipfs repo) of http://dist.ipfs.io.ipns.localhost:8080/go-ipfs/v0.11.0 in Firefox 97 produces:

2022-02-11_19-09

Usually hitting F5 solves the issue, because by that time, the IPFS node already has blocks and can generate the response.

TODO

  • needs analysis (what changed, what is the trigger, is there anything we could do in companion or go-ipfs to avoid this annoyance?)
