Crawler and CDN nodes

if your origin server supports LScache , and once page is cached there, it will be essentially like a static request , and connection between origin servers and nodes are usually fast enough , so that only give you very minimal latency between this part

so best thing you can do for now is crawl on the origin server

cache sync is on the QC roadmap

I use Cloudways as server for my WordPress and QUIC Cloud with Standard (paid) plan for my website. Still when I visit with vpn from other continent for example, the pages get x-qc-cache: miss, even tho all my pages are precrawled in crawler and also get x-qc-cache hit when browsing from VPN here in Germany or normally browsing. What I want is on all nodes also to get a x-qc-cache hit.
With crawling on origin server, do I have to leave the Server IP on General settings blank or type in my Cloudways server URL?

actually , if the origin is not LiteSpeed webserver, the crawler won’t work there

are you hitting on same node ?

The server is not very far from my location, so it probably uses the same node and it is definitely preloaded for the node here.

please verify by HTTP response header x-qc-pop , there are many factors involved , not only the physical distance , but also latency , network routing …etc

When browsing my website in incognito mode, I hit the node:
x-qc-pop: EU-DE-FKB-67

How can I know now that it’s the same node that is preloaded?

I also talked to Quic.Cloud support and they told me this:
“Crawler can only be utilized to build up a cache layer locally, and unfortunately at this moment it is not possible to pre-warm all the CDN nodes. We will however, plan to launch this feature in future ???“

yeah, locally , in this context, refer to your origin server, but since your origin server is not using LiteSpeed, so crawler just won’t work.

are you hitting EU-DE-FKB-67 on both cases with and without VPN ?

EU-DE-FKB-67 is without VPN and depending on VPN location I hit these nodes:
New York: NA-US-LGA-33
Los Angeles: NA-US-LAX-105
Germany (with VPN): EU-DE-FKB-67
Netherlands: EU-NL-AMS-357
France: EU-FR-NTE-51

so , if you visit the page , without VPN , you should hit EU-DE-FKB-67 , and make sure you see cache hit , then engage VPN with DE location , then visit page again , if you hit EU-DE-FKB-67 again , did you see cache hit ?

Hi,
I deactivated the QUIC standard plan to the free plan where I only have 6 nodes. Now I hit without VPN and also with VPN both the node EU-DE-LEJ-613 and I receive cache hit on both.
