When SimplePie fails to fetch or parse a feed, it should not hammer whichever server the feed came from on every page load. This is bad for two reasons: it disturbs the originating server, and it tremendously slows down page loads when the feed is in an RSS widget on the front end. Instead, we should cache the error for a reasonably long amount of time (15 minutes? An hour? More?) and bypass SimplePie until that duration expires.",enhancement,assigned,normal,,Feeds,2.9,normal,,has-patch,,performance
