  • Record that workers.dev is not a reliable origin A freshly deployed workers.dev URL answered three consecutive claims correctly and then missed milliseconds later with error code 1042. Edge locations learn the route independently, so waiting longer lowers the odds without removing them. It matters beyond CI: a media worker makes a long sequence of requests per job and one miss fails it. Clients need to retry, and production should use a custom domain.

  • Rewrite pricing and benchmarks, add encoding Both pages were overwritten prose. Rewritten as tables and short statements. Adds the Workers free tier, which the rates table had left out, and an Encoding page: Cloudflare Containers can run ffmpeg, cap at 4 vCPU and 20 GB disk with no GPU, and the disk cap blocks the current design because the worker downloads whole sources.
