Hey we tested R2 uploads with same
Hey, we tested R2 uploads with same instance compared to S3 and DO Spaces, R2 seems significantly slower (about 500ms to S3 and DO's 100ms) is there any way to get around this?

wherever I create them from?
as in based on my IP?
9363b1441db5d5b6f035de27c431630e
account id
bucket name is stablecog-dev
however, the difference is rather hard to explain by distance
given how fast the light travels 🙂
R2 regularly gets 1 second uploads in my tests
S3, DO Spaces, CoreWeave Object Storage, nothing else I tried comes even close to that long
If it was doing 200-300ms I would assume it's because of the region difference
But 500ms-1000ms, is a bit hard to explain by region
I'm not testing locally btw, I tested with 2 different machines with 2Gbit uploads
and 10Gbit downloads
DO Spaces and S3 regularly hits 35-50ms for the same upload, that could be explained by region (as opposed to say 150ms). But 500ms makes me think Cloudflare is throttling it
and 1000ms, idk what's up with that, these are 100kb files
Actually CoreWeave's storage solution also hits 50ms, though I didn't see 35ms with that one
Also, isn't there a way to force us-east on the bucket? Am I supposed to use a VPN or something when creating the bucket?

so currently there is no way whatsoever for me to force a bucket in USA?
Warsaw still doesn't explain the 500-1000ms times though

Any updates?
Is there anyway to see where our bucket resides at btw, from our end. We'll try to create a bucket in the us-east region but not sure how we can confirm it's in that region after creation

@sdnts itd be great to hear when those improvements are implemented. i’m basically waiting until i see some of these performance issues get resolved before i give R2 a real try
this is what get bucket location gives me
this all sounds weird indeed. We want to use R2, but we simply can't because of these problems. Auto sounds good in theory but in practice we basically need to create and delete buckets until we get one in the region we want
instead of just picking it 😄

so is GetBucketLocation supposed to work?
for me to see where my bucket is?
or is there any way whatsoever for me to see it?
because I really would like to know where the bucket it 🙂

thank you, I dmed him
Just to clarify on this, the latency seemed abnormally high even for a bucket that was located far away, correct?
so it's unlikely that region hints alone would resolve the latency problem?
Correct
Region hints by themselves wouldn’t solve it, I’m just looking for as much info as I can get
