I think you're confusing the two benefits.
What the thread OP is talking about is the decrease in page size from the URLs included in the page source. Choosing a shorter URL for the static domain versus a longer one resulted in a rough savings of 50 bytes per page (size), compressed.
You're referring to request cookie size, which was also decreased significantly (CloudFlare still sets a single cookie, unfortunately), which results in the big savings of ~100 KB upstream per page load.
- psykovsky 13y agoKind of off-topic, but how do you feel about doing a conscious MITM to your users(by using Cloudflare), being 4chan home of Anonymous and all that?
- icebraining 13y ago4chan logs IPs and provides them to the cops if the ask, so it's not like users who want to remain completely anonymous can do so without being behind seven proxies anyway.
