> Cloudflare DNS does not route efficiently with AWS CloudFront anycast DNS. I tracked down insanely slow `rustup update` downloads to incorrect selection of ideal routes to the AWS resources caused by using CF to resolve the DNS.

Please send me details (silverlock at cloudflare) here - AWS has our geofeed.

If you can include resolution details - e.g. dig @1.1.1.1 <cloudfront-host> +nsid - with the incorrect CF results, we can provide them to AWS.

Folks did geo-routing with DNS long before ECS was included, and there’s a privacy trade-off to be had. We’re exploring ways to make this better but there is no free lunch.

Thanks for providing your info. I stopped using CF for resolution because of this almost two years ago; I don’t have a reason to think the situation changed but if I get a chance I can try to reproduce it and get back to you.
