Example Performance Tips
Use the E-Tag HTTP Header
The ETag key is a hash that represents our last response. If you provide the If-None-Match header with this
key, we will only send you content if its new and worth your waiting. Otherwise we just return a 304 header and skip the body re-generation.
This can dramatically improve performance for repetitive queries (eg fetching latest posts)
