## Warning
|
||||
|
||||
Adding an extra layer like a proxy server **will** add more latency, thus increase the response time from your final server to your browser. That's why for the part where you are going to rent a proxy server, you should choose a server close to your existing server(s).
|
||||
|
||||
It should be noted, in the 4th step of the instructions, you will be able to remove this latency for a major part of the users of your instance (around 90% - people using modern browsers). The rest will experience this *added* latency which won't result in a decrease of the user experience if you choose your server wisely.

Later in the tutorial I'll explain you how to reduce the bandwidth consumption on the proxy server but this won't drastically reduce it by a lot.

TL;DR: If you have "unlimited" bandwidth limit it's much better.

- 1 CPU core.
|
||||
- The proxy server should be close to your existing server(s), for minimal latency overhead.
