One of the benefits of being a Cloudflare MVP, I get earlier access to new Cloudflare products so have been using Cloudflare Browser Insights since September 19, 2019 so ~6 days ago



Filter by country = USA has fastest page speed as large portion of traffic is from USA on USA hosted servers which warm up Cloudflare's cache more often compared to other regions. ~ 67% of traffic was from USA visitors



Filter by country = China which is slowest portion of my traffic where China accounts for ~9.5% of total traffic

 

Yeah I enabled that too

Trying to match Cloudflare Browser Insights period of September 21-27, 2019 to my Google Analytics for though my GA is AEST timezone and CF is USA timezone I believe so not the same. I filtered both CF Browser Insights and GA for just my site's index page

 

That is news to me, can you share the email reply you got from Adsense support (minus any private info of course) ?

 

I see. Thanks for heads up though - will ask around myself too.

 

Was looking at Adsense policies at Modification of the AdSense ad code - AdSense Help and it suggests it's fine as long as it isn't inflating ad views or any of the outlined items in the link. Cloudflare Rocket Loader won't inflate adviews though so not entirely sure if that customer support person didn't understand what Rocket Loader does ? You might want to get a confirmation via email too.

 

Strange then as nothing in their written policy at Modification of the AdSense ad code - AdSense Help would suggest Rocket Loader violates it as Rocket Loader doesn't inflate or alter ad views. I've asked Cloudflare to also look at it from their end too - maybe they need to more specifically what Rocket Loader does so Adsense can understand that it doesn't violate their policies.

 

again that additional code doesn't do anything to inflate ad views

 

Yeah Browser Insights is useful. Cloudflare routing for some folks has been a bit spotty lately, maybe due to increased 'work from home' traffic or maintenance work done ? You can keep an eye on their status page at https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/

looks like alot of re-routing going on

 

very nice indeed !
