Or you can have the browser cache the CORS header for up to 2 hours (cross-browser), for the same performance effect - but it will also work for third party website consumers of your API that you can't just put on your domain.

The author did not actually solve the problem at hand.

Try the API playground[1] on the authors site. Its takes more than 1 secs for me to get a preflight response back.

The preflight request hits fastly and aws apigateway and maybe the application well. There are lot of options to solve the problem at fastly and apigateway as I mention in another comment[2].

I really hope author reads the comments here.
