BunnyCDN has been the fasted I've used on a couple of our projects. I would highly recommend.

Agreed. I've been using it for all DNS and CDN for over two years now. Great company, great support, great performance, great API. Everything. Love it. I'm a big fan.

This is all cool, but:

Makes me think that author's CF was misconfigured. Unless you're in a zone with really bad interconnects, like Brazil, or African locations, multiple hundreds of milliseconds shouldn't be possible as the baseline, much less as the difference in the saved latency. (I'm assuming the author talks about a single blog post request)

So, don't expect a 100ms+ improvement.

I was surprised by that too: typically I’ve only seen such high latency on Netlify based sites which exclusively uses aws-east for the whole world.

Poorly bunny has many us services that get your personal data.

Tableau will receive your personal, billing and account consumption details.

MixPanel will receive your personal account details as well as information.

Active Campaign will receive your personal, billing, and account consumption information.

For a service I am working on, I was considering paid CDN, but they were all cost prohibitive for what I expected the usage to be. So I wrote my own CDN(2k lines of code with peer state synchronisation). But Bunny always seemed to be the best bang for the buck. I think they are from Slovenia, so that is a plus in my book.

BunnyCDN has a great product offering, particularly if you've used Backblaze B2 as "ultra-cheap" object storage, the BunnyCDN product is very competitive pricing-wise, and the CDN configures seamlessly with it. And you can set up a cheap image transform proxy on any of your CDNs.

R2 is cheaper though if you storage cost is less than your bandwidth cost, and B2 has a feature to automatically expire items which depending on your design might make it more efficient.
