Not surprisingly, Sydney is closest to me. Subtract approx. 580ms to remove satellite latency from ping times. I usually get connected to ASIA-EAST.

Finland’s best for me, well, i live near Finland

      Thanks everyone for posting. We are looking into opportunities to improve.

        From Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, Kagi is very slow, 2-3 second wait for search result.

          matusfaro It looks like you are using a VPN? No way Zurich is going to be the closest node?

              Vlad Sorry I didn't get a notification you replied.

              I am not sure what happened there, I may have forgotten my VPN on. Here is the result again:

                  matusfaro Thanks. Is Kagi still slow for you after the update today?

                      New Zealand. I do find Kagi significantly slower than Google, though it's not painfully slow.

                        Nition Would you be able to post a side by side video of a query in Kagi and Google for you?

                            I couldn't think of an easy way to start both searches at exactly the same time, but you can see that although I start the Kagi search first, it doesn't show results until just after the Google search is done. Both are pretty fast though!

                            For the record I have a 300Mbps down/100Mbps up connection.

                              Nition Thank you this is very useful... Can you share a screenshot of your network traffic tab in the browser inspector, specifically of the main Kagi request?

                                  Hi, it's a bit different each time, but this seems fairly representative:

                                    Fast enough here. But compared to Startpage, Google and DuckDuckGo still a bit slower.

                                      Nition This shows it took about 2.2 seconds to show results. That is a lot. We will look more into it.

                                          Kagi pages load quickly - but results take 3+ seconds to appear.

                                          It looks like perhaps the page doesn't lazy load results and some take longer than others to return.
