Would love to see some real world figures on the difference in page loads. Intuitively it feels like a lot of overhead outside of the packets being saved between the host server and cloud flare.

I do have some numbers on load times based on testing we did with a hosting partner where we took a small number of their sites and tested using Railgun. We saw a speedup of between 2.77x and 4.78x on the page download time.
With a different hosting partner (and a different set of sites) we saw a page download time speedup of between 2.94x and 8.12x.
