We have a website which is suddenly running so slow today from Karachi/Pakistan. Site is using following name servers:
ajay ns Cloudflare com
lola ns Cloudflare com
When I bypass the Cloudflare and define website IP address into my hosts file, it all runs very fine. It’s just so slow when using site behind Cloudflare.
Can someone please check? if you need further info. please let me know.
Yes, since I have been using Cloudflare over the several years, all traffic from Karachi > Pakistan is always routed to Singapore and that always works perfectly fine. It’s just today we are having this slowness issue with CF.
All right, so it is the document URL. Considering that everything else loads swiftly and it’s only that URL, your server may be throttling the Singaporean datacenter. Check your server logs and make sure there is no rate-limiting for IP addresses.
No, there is nothing in the logs which suggest any throttling.
It is also proven through other websites which are using same name servers of Cloudflare but are on different servers, those are also slow from Karachi > Pakistan.
For example, this website carjunction.com.ng/cdn-cgi/trace is also very slow (from Karachi/Pakistan) which is on different server but using name server as:
The nameservers are irrelevant, the issue is on the HTTP level.
And - as I said - considering everything else is loading all right, this will be an issue with that particular URL and the code that is behind it. Replace your dynamic PHP page with a static HTML one and I’d assume it will load just fine.
