Cf-cache-status miss on Chrome (but not Firefox) with SXG

Performance
#1

I recently upgraded to Pro, I enabled APO and enabled Automatic Signed Exchanges (SXGs). I noticed I was getting cf-cache-status: MISS on HTML pages (all other resources such as images and javascript were getting a HIT). I finally realized it is only a MISS with Chromium browsers (Chrome, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi, etc.). Every curl test I did showed a HIT, and FireFox also was showing a cf-cache-status: HIT.

Toggling APO doesn’t seem to make a difference. But I think this may be related to SXG. With SXGs disabled I’m getting a cf-cache-status: HIT from Chromium browsers. With it enabled I’m getting a MISS. Is this expected behavior? Or is the cf-cache-status even relevant with SXG?

Hi and yes, this is already reported and the team is working on it. Please notice, that this:

  1. is not affecting cache/performance at all
  2. is just “miss labeling” the cf-cache-status header
  3. does just apply to the initial request and AFAIK only if it is HTML
  4. just happens on newer Chromium based browsers.
