Just be careful with those benchmarks, cdnperf is run by jsdelivr. An uptime and speed monitor based in one location is a pretty flawed way of analysing the performance of a cdn. As for Jimaeks comment above "multiple cdns" do not enforce better performance either.

I guess they are using Pingdom which has more than 50 locations for testing, but yes it would be nice to see per-location data.

This is correct. cdnperf uses multiple locations provided by pingomd and also makes sure all CDNs are tested from the exact same locations. If you have any suggestions you can submit an issue over here https://github.com/bebraw/cdnperf
