I'm not sure what the desired outcome should be but successive iterations has strange results: https://html.brow.sh/https://html.brow.sh/https://html.brow.... https://html.brow.sh/https://html.brow.sh/https://html.brow....

why do you say it's strange? The image is being compressed over and over and the content of the demo page is being added each iteration.

That sort of thing is actually causing spikes in load on the cluster. I think the quickness of the requests must skip the cache. So it's a bug really, I just need to detect recursive URLs and extract the deepest link.
