Even their status page is down. And sure - all my sites too. And funny part is that for most of my sites i have stopped Clouflare features and use just their DNS. Never thought that I will fail because of DNS not being available.
- mmahemoff 14y agoCloudflare user here. Can I ask why you turned CloudFlare services off?
- endijs 14y agobtw - sites are back. I hope they will not go down. Why I have switched off services? Because once i enabled them sites got slower, not faster. Sure - I doubt that most users noticed that, but for example, if i checked Pingdom or Google Crawl Stats - 'Time spent downloading a page' situation was very clear. With Cloudflare it took Google 2x more time to download page than without. I had no time to investigate why thats so, but after switching Clouflare off i was again back to 500ms. Edit: Sites are not back. I guess that work the ones for which i have DNS cached. Lets wait...
- mmahemoff 14y agoWhen I briefly did that test, I didn't find much difference on Pingdom; but I like some of their other services and I assume they can handle burst activity at least as well as my own server. So I'm a big fan overall and keep using them.
