Hi, all! I'm thinking about how can w3af can be improved in case of number of HTTP requests per scan. Currently a big number not always necessary requests is made in discovery and audit stages. We already have some code to minimize this number but I also want to suggest single place for discovery plugins to implement limits for request's variants and checks for already reported requests. It can be implemented as shared between all discovery plugins fuzzableRequestList (child of Python's list) object. For example it can be member of baseDiscoveryPlugin. And baseDiscoveryPlugin.discover() will still return it like in current realization. In fuzzableRequestList while adding new request checks for variants can be made.
