>whitelist / headers

Playing with the headers sucks.
CF plays with theirs a lot, so if you are in the business already, be in the
business.

If you Cache you kind of have to, because Referrer often isn't going to be
what is expected.

CF runs on other people's IPs so they have less control over being white
listed. (if this is outdated I apologize)

NGinX isn't designed to run quite the way they run their setup, and there
are some weird issues that arise from that.  This is one of the hardest
things about being a CDN, you are trying to do the best fetching possible
and minimize load, but you have to muck with stuff because if Shiela in
Australia requests a page, and Bobby in the UK requests a page you want to
serve the latter out of cache, but that means that when Bobby request the
next page his sessions, and referrer is going to look strange to the target
server.

At this point... There is almost no need for a CDN on GAE. Page Speed does
this MUCH better than CF. Almost as well as CDN In A Box does, but with
fewer "gotcha's" than either (CIAB never liked Authenticated users as much
as I wanted it to... and it has had trouble with Japanese and Korean
characters from time to time, (so does CF))

For mom and pop, use Page Speed by Google it is a one click bolt on to GAE.
For Enterprise Go with Akamai.
