I ran into a bug where cloudfront takes a long time to server some requests. Not an isolated problem. This thread has reports from other users - https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?messageID=246418 https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?messageID=246418 I had the same issue in one of my websites 1. http://www.webpagetest.org/result/111114_HM_263JS/1/details/ http://www.webpagetest.org/result/111114_HM_263JS/1/details/ 2. http://www.webpagetest.org/result/111114_2N_263HM/1/details/ http://www.webpagetest.org/result/111114_2N_263HM/1/details/ You can see that cloudfront takes upto 5 seconds for some images. And these are files which were cached in cloudfront (X-Cache: Hit from cloudfront) Because of this issue, I moved away from cloudfront.
