🙏 All RUM network requests marked as high priority

[jamesmosier]

What are you trying to achieve and what is your issue? Please describe.

When initializing RUM on my web application, I see ~46 network requests going to https://browser-intake-datadoghq.com/api/v2/rum* all marked as "High priority" in Chrome devtools. I believe this to potentially have an impact on customers of my web application who might not have high bandwidth or a poor connection. Additionally could these cause an issue with resource contention against my first party requests?

Describe the solution you'd like

When initializaing RUM, I would like to understand why so many network requests are made with a high priority and if they could be changed to low.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I could disable these config options which sounds like it might help, but then I lose that data and it does not fix the priority issue.

Hi @jamesmosier,

Thanks for reaching out. We haven't configured the priority on our end, and it will take some time to verify that everything works as expected with a different priority.

In the meantime, could I suggest enabling compression? It should resolve the issue and reduce the number of requests. If you do, don't forget to include the right CSP policies in your document.

Let me know if you have more questions.
