Also loaded very quickly for me. Static sites FTW!

...and its hosted on an f1-micro instance! (https://devopsdirective.com/posts/2020/03/load-testing-f1-mi...)

Almost all of the load is handled by CloudFlare though.

Just curious - why didn't you decide to serve the site from object storage?

Mostly because I knew I wanted to play around with trying out different configurations, testing performance, etc...

If I didn't have those secondary goals, I would have either:

1) Hosted on Netlify

OR

2) Hosted in an S3 / GCS bucket
