very slow website when proxy on
There have been many complaints over Cloudflare proxying slowing down things over the past year. The only remedy is to turn proxying off. Note that the problem may be only with certain Cloudflare servers, so not all your users experience the problem, only some of them. For me, Cloudflare proxying gives a random 20–60s delay in a small number of requests but only when I'm in Helsinki, Finland. In some other cities, it does not do that. Turning caching on or off doesn't resolve the problem.

Enabling Proxy in DNS makes website slow, as soon as I remove proxy it's again become super fast
Unfortunately, the only fix has been to disable proxy in the DNS settings. 😕

Of course, the problem reappears when you return to the original city.

Can confirm that switching the location (like physically visiting another city), resolves the problem. I guess it is related to that the connection uses another Cloudflare server.

If VPN helps, the problem is probably related to a specifc Cloudflare server.
