Cloudflare Times out

Hello, I was testing my API that is proxied by cloudflare on AWS, and I noticed that my API is very slow, and it needs more than 60 seconds to respond.

however cloudflare terminates the connection excatly after 60 seconds and returns error
504
504
.


after checking the docs. it says that it allows up to 90 seconds, so what’s up with that?


I know I should fix my API, but I want to know why it only allowed 60 seconds and not 90? As far as I know, only enterprise users can change the timeout settings...
