Benchmarking Cloudflare R2 HEAD Requests from Cloudflare Workers
Why would I do this? For my latest project, mapvoyage, I need to serve text files (wikitext to be specific), directly to the user if possible, as well as in a separate function select one wikitext file to display from a list of wikidata ids that may or may not have an associated wikitext file. Latency is important and I'd like the data to be edge-available if possible. R2 with workers seemed ideal here, as the client can download the files from R2 directly and I can lookup the urls from a separate worker, which hopefully shouldn't have a long latency for reading them.
