It's free, you get your site faster, and you get less spammers: where the deal with the devil?
I understood that you have to change the dns, and that's all, so all off you traffic is routed to the "filters" of cloudflare, but i can't understand why it is free...
Have you guys fixed the problem with people like myself not being able to tracert to CloudFlare sites? According to your techs, the fault is blamed on my ISP "messing" with my ICMP traffic. I don't have a problem with traceroute in Linux, but I was told that was because it uses UDP or something different from ICMP. I find it strange that my ISP is to blame for all the CloudFlare sites that I can't tracert to.
I had a lot of problems with weird connection errors and time outs using CloudFlare on my XenForo instance, even with the Page Rules turned on for the entire XenForo location. I was told to do a tracert every time I had problems, which obviously isn't even possible now for the last couple of months.
Hi,
What are you basing the slowness on? A reporting tool? Need more details.
If you are basing this on time to first byte, the issue is explained here.
Most sites see a 50% improvement in performance on CloudFlare.
Did you have the XenForo mod installed? Curious. Every issue we check, outside of a rare system issue, does indicate that hosting providers do block/limit IPs. If someone is using CloudFlare, for example, we become a reverse proxy for sites & our IPs would show in requests to the site; without installing one of the mods to restore visitor IP, then somemay be blocking requests based on firewall rules.
