Proxy speed is affected by the local network, distance to the exit location, target site, protocol, and current endpoint load.
Key points
- Test the local network without a proxy first.
- Choose a region closer to the user or target service.
- Test multiple available endpoints against the same target.
- Reduce concurrent connections and check for repeated retries.
- Record the time, endpoint, target, and speed results before contacting support.
Note: Results from different speed-test sites do not directly represent application performance.
