CloudFront Functions: 20% faster than CloudFlare Workers, 230% faster than Lambda@Edge

Apache ab Hey Load Generator
  1. Apache ab is a tool for benchmarking Apache Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server.
    I decided to keep my performance tests simple, using curl to make requests to each of the 3 services hosting my function code to forward a short link request to the full URL (e.g., example.com/git forwarding to a specific GitHub repo). While I could have turned to tools like Apache Bench, Hey, Artillery, or Iter8 for more options and testing features, I wanted to use the most direct request method which would also allow me to see the raw data.
