I see mixed results with Cloudflare (pro plan): Sometimes the load times are as low as 50ms, the other times as high as 250ms; both for multiple hours on end, even when I am connecting to the same co-location.
I gave AWS Cloudfront a try as well, and to my surprise their load times held consistently at less than 40ms throughout. It is another thing that, quite unfortunately, for my workloads, Cloudfront turns out to be very expensive.
