Frequently Asked Questions
Why use an image CDN?
Our CDN network is composed of servers strategically located across various data centers worldwide. By delivering your content from the nearest cache server, we significantly reduce the load on your origin server. This approach improves loading speeds for your audience, improves user experience, and minimizes the risk of downtime. Additionally, it decreases the strain on your origin server and provides protection against threats such as DDoS attacks.
How long are items cached?
Items are cached for 7 days in our local cache, and for 14 days on the Cloudflare edge. This setup ensures that content is delivered quickly to users by reducing the need for repeated fetching from the server. It keeps things running smoothly and efficiently, even during traffic spikes, as frequently accessed data is readily available. Plus, it helps reduce server load, which can improve overall site performance.
What optimisations are being performed?
All images are converted to the modern and efficient AVIF image format, followed by a standard 25% compression for optimization. This means pages load faster, which is great for keeping visitors engaged. Plus, the images still look sharp and clear, so you don’t have to worry about sacrificing quality. With quicker load times, your site can also rank better on search engines, making it a win-win situation. SVG images are excluded from conversion and optimization, but will be cached.
Are there any limitations?
Yes, to maintain service stability and prevent abuse, there is a limit of 2,500 uncached requests every 10 minutes. IP addresses exceeding this limit will be blocked for 1 hour. There is also a image file size limit of 5 MB, larger files will be rejected.
Additionally, we use the Cloudflare “family” DNS servers 1.1.1.3 and 1.0.0.3 on our nodes to prevent certain domains from being cached through our service.
How can I see if my images are being cached?
The best way to check if your images are succesfully being served from our cache is to open the browser tools in Chrome or Firefox.
If the file is served from our cache you will see the following headers:
- x-serveproxy-cache-expires: Wed, 25 Dec 2024 09:26:29 GM
- X-serveproxy-cache-status: HIT
Besides that the node that served the image and the md5 hash for the origin image URL are shown.
