> There's always going to be something to complain about, I guess... Cloudflare are making the claim that they’re faster than others, and they collected the data they’re basing their claim on They’re always going to try to present themselves favourably so that means we should be skeptical and ask questions about the gaps in the data and the methodology

Sure, I agree. But couldn't find much too doubt though. Questioning 10, 100 vs 200 kb. seemed nitting to me, if I may say that. I've seen a lot of bias against cloudflare since fastly's blaming and a lot seems exaggerated to me. It's like they have to hold standards 20 x higher than the rest to make the same point. And tbh. They actually didn't earn the blame that happened then ( if I remember it correctly) I'm sure fastly would be quick to point out any errors ( relevant or not) in benchmarking. And considering they didn't for a month and considering history, that also bears meaning. Since they are the obvious losers here ( only faster in Liberia... ). Additionally, I'm pretty sure eastdakota's statement "game on" and their unfortunate PR disaster ( they have gone much more silent since then), would mean they are double checking any benchmarking for errors. At least, if I can guess cloudflare 's management correctly. Note: fan of the firm + management. Got shares. If I wouldn't think they are acting in good faith, I'd probably sell my shares.
