            Bug ID: 46327
           Summary: Don’t purge cache twice in one billing period, for
                    webfonts and other large resources
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: wmf-deployment
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Apache configuration
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---

Webfonts seem to be delivered with the header Cache-Control: max-age=2592000
(30 days, in seconds). 

This means that en.wiktionary could be forcing all 1.6 MB of fonts to be
downloaded twice in one billing period, during a 31-day month. This might
needlessly accrue a significant cost for someone on a metered internet
connection, whether wired or wireless. 

The cache should  not force a purge until 32 days (2764800 seconds) have
passed. It wouldn’t hurt to apply this to any other resources that are set to
be purged in 30 days, for all Wikimedia sites.
