Ok,

So I've been playing around with amazon web services as I am trying to speed up my website and save resources on my server by using AWS S3 & CloudFront.

I ran a page speed test initially, the page speed loaded in **1.89ms**. I then put all assets onto an s3 bucket, made that bucket available to cloudfront and then used the cloudfront url on the page.

When I ran the page speed test again using [this tool](http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/) using all their server options I got these results:

> 
> Server with lowest speed of : 3.66ms
> 
> 
> Server with highest speed of: 5.41ms
> 
> 
> 

As you can see there is a great increase here in speed. Have I missed something, is it configured wrong? I thought the CDN was supposed to make the page speed load faster.
