#### Returning Fallback Responses

You can return a fallback response from the `onError` hook by resolving the hook with a `Response` object. This allows you to customize the error response sent to the client.

```typescript
proxy(req, undefined, {
onError: async (req, error) => {
// Log error
console.error("Proxy error:", error)

// Return a fallback response
console.log("Returning fallback response for:", req.url)
return new Response("Fallback response", { status: 200 })
},
})
```

## Performance Tips

1. **URL Caching**: Keep `cacheURLs` enabled (default 100) for better performance
