Cloudflare has announced that its network performance has improved, ranking as the fastest in 48% of the top 1000 networks by 95th percentile TCP connection time between November 2024 and March 2025, up from 44% in September 2024. The company uses Real User Monitoring (RUM) to collect data on its network performance, which is compared against other networks. Cloudflare's improvements are attributed to the presence of Edge Partner deployments, collaborations with ISPs, and investments in peering and traffic engineering. The company tracks its network performance to improve user experience and continues to optimize its traffic flow with each top 1000 eyeball network. With a focus on becoming the fastest network globally, Cloudflare aims to identify areas where it's slower, fix them, and share its updates with customers.
