With introduction of GSet credentials (#135), S3 gateway uses SEARCH request to find accessbox object and then follows back to direct object GET if no versions were found.

This might be suboptimal because:

SEARCH is more network demanding request than GET
Keyboxes tend to expire so there is going to be more initially created / re-created accceboxes than reciphered accessboxes over time.

Consider sending HEAD request first and then follow back to SEARCH operation.
