Images remote transformation a lot slower than uploaded images

For Workers & Pages, what is the name of the domain?

What is the issue or error you’re encountering

Loading the same image via a remote transformation is a LOT slower than loading an uploaded image

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

I prepared the same image, once as an image uploaded to cloudflare images, once via a remote transformation to compare speed.
The headers say that both requests HIT the cache.

What are the steps to reproduce the issue?

Load this image:


And see how slowly it loads (slow TTFB and slow download)

Load this image:


An see how quickly it loads.

Heya!

The images linked have all been resolved to the discourse cdn: https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cloudflare/original/3X/5/0/50ae67b3df35670b25336b71dd4c7e6a1cf4f2ba.jpeg

As such, none of the examples here are usable.

Ah, sorrry my bad.

Bad URL:
https://images.esveo.dev/cdn-cgi/image/w=1200/https://media.littlejohnbikes.de/wp-content/uploads/bilder/e-bikes-kalkhoff-entice-5-b-advance-abs-145900_1.jpg?72e52851

Good URL:
https://imagedelivery.net/4WKN_wHyJGvF63_TfTtfrw/7dd240b2-0540-4bc7-aca3-4c6d604e1100/w=1200

Really weird, today, I’m getting more or less the same response times for both URLs…

Not sure if this is a day of week problem, or a network problem. Today back in the office, the “bad” URL loads 5 times slower again than the “good” URL.
