The really high TTFB from France with #Netlify makes me want to move to another hosting for my photography site, maybe #Cloudflare.

This is sad, I really like Netlify features. 😔

    Judging by this #SpeedCurve graph comparing TTFB from last 3 months to the 3 months before, it looks like TTFB has improved lately with #Netlify, while it has degraded with #Cloudflare:

    The graph is split in 2 with Jully to September 2023 on the left and October to December 2023 on the right.

    I'm currently using Cloudflare in front of Netlify, but I'm not sure it's worth it anymore. 🤔

    Cloudflare in “Faster website, more customers: Cloudflare Observatory can help your business grow”:

    The generated report provides an overall performance score ranging from 1 (least performant) to 99 (most performant)

    First try on my photography site: 100 🤷‍♂️😅

    Joke aside, new tools to audit performance are always welcome!

    I still don't understand why using Cloudflare in front of Netlify allows for a much better and stable Time To First Byte (TTFB) than Cloudflare Pages or Netlify alone… 🤷‍♂️

    TTFB for static sites should always be very low.

    Any idea why there's so much TTFB difference on #Netlify for main vs branch deploys?

    Here is TTFB for:

    • Orange: https://nho-photo.netlify.app/
    • Blue: https://progressive--nho-photo.netlify.app/
    • Green: https://progressive-steep--nho-photo.netlify.app/

    Branches TTFB is always higher than for the main branch
