Speedtest

The Need for Speed

Web speed tests depends on distance from you to the test server, a server that is close will always be faster than another far away, in particular latency wise.

So instead of hosting a speed test server in any particular data center a speed test is deployed using Cloudflare Workers, Cloudflare’s compute at the Edge service.

These workers are distributed across the world so you always tests against the one closest to you.
