also worth remembering that workers don't shut down right away

they stay around for a while (there is no set duration)

Are you allowed to do a fetch with FinalizationRegistry? Was thinking you could make a Worker fetch itself as soon as it's being cleaned up.

WalshyOP•5/27/25, 1:44 PM

FinalizationRegistry is only on gc cleanup, i don't know if you'll be able to get that reliably on worker shut down - i doubt it

WalshyOP•5/27/25, 1:45 PM

i'm not aware of it blocking fetch though so you can try it

that’s terrifying lol

Trojan•5/27/25, 2:07 PM

how about regional durable object replicas which ping their counterparts on the opposite side of the globe to stay warmed and consume wall time over cpu time

Trojan•5/27/25, 2:07 PM

well i guess you can’t concretely set their placement

Hi!
Is there a way to rate-limit my Worker so that requests are not even counted by Cloudflare toward my daily request limit? It seems like the rate limit API only limits inside the Worker, but the initial call will still increment the request counter, right?

Chaika•5/27/25, 4:05 PM

yes, rate limit rules and using Worker Custom Domains

Rate limiting rules

Rate limiting rules allow you to define rate limits for requests matching an expression, and the action to perform when those rate limits are reached.

Anyone else having issues with worker builds atm?

Are workers slower than pages? A Hugo project which takes less than 90 seconds on pages is now taking over 200 seconds on workers.

Chaika•5/27/25, 8:10 PM

Build Environment wise? Yes, it's been my experience the Workers Builds are slower
Production wise? It's all the same tech, Pages Functions are Workers, and both Pages Assets and Workers Static Assets are based off the same stuff, both use KV for storage and such, Workers Custom Domains are faster then Pages Custom Domains by a solid ~20ms tho

When I run opennextjs-cloudflare buildopennextjs-cloudflare build and opennextjs-cloudflare deployopennextjs-cloudflare deploy, do these commands read the values of

.dev.vars

.dev.vars

? If so, when deploying from a local machine, what's a good practice to avoid this?

Hey everyone!

I'm new to Cloudflare Workers and exploring caching strategies.

Current Setup: SSG blog site (like Pages). Goal: Rebuild with a framework (Hono/RedwoodJS) using a headless CMS (GraphQL) and achieve static HTML-like speed.

What are your best tips for caching with Workers in this scenario? Specifically, how can I make dynamic content from a headless CMS feel as fast as a fully static site?

Thanks in advance!

I made an open source project with Rust which is an api deployed in CF Workers, where it stores hashed passwords with Argon2id in Cloudflare KV, with an api for registration, login, change user and delete user, generates JWT back to authenticate, perfect for https://github.com/fernandodilland/cloudflare-workers-turnstile-kv-rust-auth-argon2id-api websites.

I like Application Functions a lot more than Workers for (semi) static pages. Setup is simple and straight forward, chose git repo -> deploy / done. There is more to set for workers and without wrangler you will have troubles setting up everything. I would suggest unifying the two behind the scenes but keeping pages like worker templates, keeping it stupid simple for folks wanting to do something super straight forward. - Do not go the AWS route by making everything super abstracted and granular and necessarily super complex, PLEASE!!!

Paul Mihai•5/28/25, 9:49 AM

To my knowledge you need to pass any data you want to get from the front worker to the api worker yourself. I used this mechanism to create security insulation for workers that needed to share session details

Paul Mihai•5/28/25, 12:23 PM

When workers are called they respond from the closest node, in your case 2 workers calling one another would most likely be on the same exact node if not then at the very least same exact location! So basically if you have the location of the main worker you have the one of the subworker too.

Paul Mihai•5/28/25, 12:27 PM

I don't think there is such a mechanic, you will need to provide the modules yourself

Paul Mihai•5/28/25, 12:39 PM

Well I'd download the public library and then load it like any ol module... import { PostalMime } from 'path_to_my_lib/posta-mime.min.js'; Or something along those lines

Paul Mihai•5/28/25, 12:46 PM

You need to download the libraries to your project then you can use them, you can not load remote online libraries

Paul Mihai•5/28/25, 1:06 PM

Don't think you can do this from the workers ui to be honest. Don't see how

That's all non standard cron stuff so differs a lot between systems

Chaika•5/28/25, 10:55 PM

Days of the week go from 1 = Sunday to 7 = Saturday, which is different on some other cron systems (where 0 = Sunday and 6 = Saturday). To avoid ambiguity you may prefer to use the three latter abbreviations (e.g. SUN rather than 1).
