- Route through DataImpulse residential proxy when BOOKING_PROXY_* env
vars are set (empty = direct connection, unchanged behaviour)
- Sticky one IP per session via DataImpulse sessid; rotate_session()
burns the IP for a fresh one
- Rotate-on-block: retry a date on a new IP when the page is challenged
or page 1 renders zero hotels (up to 3 IPs; single attempt sans proxy)
- Persistent, pre-warmed context across dates so cache stays hot
(~5 MB first page, ~0.3 MB per date after) instead of per-date cold loads
- Block images/media/fonts and third-party ad/consent/analytics hosts to
cut bandwidth; never touch the anti-bot challenge (awswaf)
- Faster inter-page pacing now that a burned IP is cheap
