missing caching for robots.txt
------------------------------
Key: DROIDS-105
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DROIDS-105
Project: Droids
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: core
Reporter: Paul Rogalinski
Attachments: CachingContentLoader.java
the current implementation of the HttpClient will not cache any requests to the
robots.txt file. While using the CrawlingWorker this will result in 2 requests
to the robots.txt (HEAD + GET) per crawled URL. So when crawling 3 URLs the
target server would get 6 requests for the robots.txt.
unfortunately the contentLoader is made final in HttpProtocol, so there is no
possibility to replace it with a caching Protocol like that one you'll find in
the attachment.
