While beneficial, Cloudflared introduces some overhead. It consumes system resources (CPU, memory) and adds complexity to your setup. You need to ensure your server meets the minimum requirements and that you understand how to manage the Cloudflared configuration. Also, if Cloudflared has issues, it can impact your Home Assistant accessibility.
