Description
Using maven eclipse plugin with DownloadSources=true creates lot's of request to the repository for -sources and -javadocs. Many artifacts don't have such bundles.
When archiva is configured with multiple proxies (central + java.net + jboss ...) a single running "mvn eclipse:eclipse" will result in many 404 request on proxies that SHOULD be cached. The cache time-to-live (30 minute) is sufficient to get new artifacts when they get deployed.
There is allready an UrlFailureCache but is only used to cache ProxyExceptions.
didn't we go back and forward on this on the list? I thought the conclusion was to cache 404's... but if not, was there a counterpoint given as to why not?
