The tool will now:
The entire work takes 3–5 minutes. A green checkmark indicates success. e1207y pac file work
Older versions of e1207y contain a fatal flaw: they use dnsResolve(host) for every request. If your corporate DNS is slow (over 50ms), the browser hangs. Fix: Replace dnsResolve() with isInNet() if possible, or reduce reliance on live DNS calls. The tool will now:
When you type a URL (e.g., http://youtube.com) into your browser, the browser downloads e1207y.pac (caching it locally) and calls the mandatory function: The entire work takes 3–5 minutes
function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
// Example logic inside e1207y.pac
if (shExpMatch(host, "*.internal.local"))
return "DIRECT";
if (dnsDomainIs(host, "banking.example.com"))
return "PROXY secure-proxy.corp.com:3128";
return "PROXY proxy.e1207y.net:8080; DIRECT";
For every single HTTP/HTTPS request, the browser runs this function against the e1207y rules. This is why poorly written PAC files kill performance.
Scenario A: "File Check Error"
Scenario B: "Unrecognized Device"
