Making relayx usable as a backend for indexstar would have multiple benefits:
- Reduce a network hops when responding to find requests. Indexstar could query relayx directly, instead of querying an indexer which must in turn query its relayx to get the response.
- Responding to find requests would not be affected by temporary outages of an indexer.
Relayx would still need to get its providers information from the indexer, but it would us the provider cache, pcache, to do this. This will greatly reduce queries to the indexer as well as continue operating across temporary indexer outages.
