Hi,

No 1005 ms was not a cache miss it was a request to the origin server. Latency was 799 ms.

I assume CloudFront will contribute some latency, however in our case (we are using Heroku) our servers were already on Amazon platform, therefore CloudFront --> our server latency should be significantly lower. So CloudFront cache miss latency for the enduser will be not significantly higher than origin server latency for the enduser.

Thanks, I've asked because I've read somewhere that an average request for a "Miss from cloudfront" object was ~1 second, and I thought that your data was confirming that value.
