Coordinates are the real datacentre city rather than the marketing region name, because they feed the distance maths below.
Light in fibre covers about 100 km per millisecond of round trip. These are the great-circle distances to Atlanta and the latency no network can beat — not a measurement, a limit. What you actually measure is this plus routing.
| From | Distance | Floor |
|---|---|---|
| New York | 1,200 km | 12 ms |
| Los Angeles | 3,110 km | 31 ms |
| São Paulo | 7,520 km | 75 ms |
| London | 6,770 km | 68 ms |
| Frankfurt | 7,402 km | 74 ms |
| Johannesburg | 13,567 km | 136 ms |
| Dubai | 12,197 km | 122 ms |
| Mumbai | 13,666 km | 137 ms |
| Singapore | 16,019 km | 160 ms |
| Tokyo | 11,041 km | 110 ms |
| Sydney | 14,945 km | 149 ms |
Within 75 km of Atlanta — near enough that distance sets no meaningful floor between them. When several sit in one city, the fastest is the city’s real floor; a slower neighbour is usually the endpoint’s own server time.
These figures are geometry. Your own round trip to ga-us depends on your connection and the route it takes — open the instrument, pick Vultr, and sweep. Every region is timed from your browser against the endpoint listed above, and the result is split into the part physics demands and the part the network added.
