Binding to an interface seems to be easiest to implement safely as a target- as in a PF rule allowing an internal network to access the Internet will work well. If the bound definition is a source, that is usually where things are likely to get "interesting".
Use of DNS hostnames or DNS groups in IPS configurations (can trigger IPS restarts, delaying all traffic).
We need to figure out what is unique in the setup that causes this- your experience is not universal.
I have seen occasional issues, and some sites simply timeout when they do not proxy well (often without any clues of you use the HTTPS proxy). But universal timeouts indicate something we can fix.
Without digging through all of your forum posts, the most common causes of slow proxies I have seen in support cases have been:
Slow or misconfigured DNS.
Host or network definitions bound to interfaces.
Use of DNS hostnames or DNS groups in IPS configurations (can trigger IPS restarts, delaying all traffic).
Upstream proxies interfering with the traffic.
One thing which may be informative is to run a frequent series of traceroutes to the CFF servers (with name resolution disabled to speed things up and remove outside influences). This will give you an idea of baseline performance for each hop, and help identifiy exactly where the issues lie.
Have you contacted support on this?
I apologize if you've covered all of this before.
