As part of the Quantum Network initiative we are working on a project called "Race Cache With Network" (rcwn) [1].
This project changes the way the network cache works. When we detect that disk IO may be slow, we send a network request in parallel, and we use the first response that comes back. For users with slow spinning disks and a low latency network, the result would be faster loads. This feature is currently preffed off - network.http.rcwn.enabled In bug 1366224, which is about to land on m-c, we plan to enable it on nightly for one or two days, to get some useful telemetry for our future work. For any crashes or unexpected behaviour, please file bugs blocking 1307504. Thanks!
