What did you do?
I'm running requests (using go-resty library, based on default HTTP client). This problem is I need to use proxies, some of proxies are dead (public proxies) and so, they don't answer the request.
I started learning Go not a long time ago, but when I was programming in C#, the proxy handling was good, I mean :
- Most of proxies respond well. Here in Go, the proxy definition is sketchy (in my opinion). There is also no official way to put proxy with authentication (not sure?).
- When a proxy is dead, it throws an error fast. Here in Go, it waits for the default page timeout, not a connect timeout or something.
What did you expect to see?
Proxy integration that respond better or that skips wrong/dead proxies faster.
What did you see instead?
Mainly performance losses, and when I use public proxies, Go seems not connecting to all proxies while some are really working.
