I understand Cloudflare may use Google SSL. However, whenever this happens, my application load time significantly increases and times out causing an outage for my users.
Is there a way to disable Google SSL and just use the SSL by Cloudflare?
The edge SSL certificate won’t be causing your timeout. Cloudflare uses Google or LetsEncrypt for edge certificates. The old Cloudflare-branded Digicert certificates are not being issued any longer.
If you give your website, people may be able to test it for you to see what any problems might be.

Thanks. I think we figured it out. So we were using Full STRICT and downgraded to just Full. It seems to work now with no issues.
Don’t do that. It means your origin certificate is being read, but not validated. If “Full” works, when “Full (strict)” does not, it means your origin certificate is self-signed, expired, for a different hostname or some other reason is invalid. This means the connection between Cloudflare and your origin is not secured. You should ensure you are using a valid SSL certificate on your origin, or a Cloudflare origin certificate, only so as to protect your site traffic for you and your users.
