Description:
Webfonts seem to be delivered with the header Cache-Control: max-age=2592000 (30 days, in seconds).
This means that en.wiktionary could be forcing all 1.6 MB of fonts to be downloaded twice in one billing period, during a 31-day month. This might needlessly accrue a significant cost for someone on a metered internet connection, whether wired or wireless.
The cache should not force a purge until 32 days (2764800 seconds) have passed. It wouldn’t hurt to apply this to any other resources that are set to be purged in 30 days, for all Wikimedia sites.
