Wondering About StackPath/NetDNA/MaxCDN Results

Summary

I have started using WPEngine for various client sites and their built-in/recommended CDN is StackPath (formerly MaxCDN). I heard about this test tool on the Performance Planet podcast this morning and thought I'd give StackPath a test.

Server / CDN etc.

More info

This seems to resemble the success scenario more than it does failure scenarios, although I can see this being an example of

A failing server will take much longer for each of the requests (even if the individual requests don't take the full test time)

Wondering, Andy, or anyone else, if it looks to be a failing case for you too.

Looks like mostly a success to me. Not quite as responsive as it could be but also not bad compared to most I have seen. The repeat view craziness looks to be all on Chrome and independent of the H2 serving.
