Once your domain is CloudFlare enabled, your sites traffic will be filtered through CloudFlares expansive global network in an attempt to optimize your traffic. This network includes 12 locations worldwide, all strategically chosen around the primary exchange points of the Internet. What this means is that due to how CloudFlare handles your requests, they're able to filter out common unwanted requests like crawlers, spiders, malicious traffic and bots. This reduction in traffic leaves more available resources for your legitimate traffic, requiring fewer resources and less bandwidth to run your site. Along with the traffic filters, CloudFlare also caches your static content across their servers. When the content is cached they are then able to serve requests for those files to users from servers which are closest to them, providing yet another performance gain for your site.
