Yeah; that's enough.

Given that these requests are only taking 3-4 seconds, it's definitely
not hitting a timeout. I'm not seeing any corresponding log records with
a 503 error on the backend (there are multiple 200 responses in this
time which look like they could correspond).

If you can set a specific user-agent string, I can check to see whether
I'm seeing the exact request that you sent in the backend logs. [The
observability of the current debbugs instance is pretty archaic, so it's
hard to connect an exact request to an exact set of logs.]

Thanks!

A people living under the perpetual menace of war and invasion is very
easy to govern. It demands no social reforms. It does not haggle over
expenditures on armaments and military equipment. It pays without
discussion, it ruins itself, and that is an excellent thing for the
syndicates of financiers and manufacturers for whom patriotic terrors
are an abundant source of gain.
