Size matters not.
Am I woefully naive and uninformed, or has CF gone down more in the past few months than years before? What's brought it on?
Understood, and wonderfully appropriate username.
Hehehehehe thank you!
Can someone explain why doesn't Cloudflare has a mechanism if it's down, to just route requests to the clients without any of the fancy caching shit?
Or it has, and clients are just not ready for the onslaught of raw traffic and go down too?
