Ok, second post on this one.  I am sending only head requests, so I want to see the first request for the image, which happens in the chrome extension after pressing submit.  It will not yet come from cloudflare so I am interested in what it looks like just streaming out of object sorage.  This time I have the inspector open on the tab.

As expected I got a cloudflare cache miss on first hit.

But the overall performance of 351ms to get the image was not bad considering it takes several seconds to get the image fresh.

Now closing the chrome extension popup, and hitting the main thoughts page again gives me a cache hit from Cloudflare's CDN.

And the total request time goes from 351ms to 21ms with the Cloudflare CDN, quite impressive!

Sorry with how meta these last two posts were, I needed a second post to get that fresh request graph from.
