Smart placement queries
I wanted to understand if smart placement can be useful for these situations -
1. the worker is interacting with a single cf service via a binding, such as queue
2. the worker is interacting with a single non-cf service, an external third party API
In both cases, there is only one round trip to the backend service. So is it useful to enable smart placement in these situations? Or a minimum of 2 round trips is required to make smart placement really useful?

Also, when interacting with cf services via bindings, is the request routed internally to the same colo, without going to external internet?
I understand that if it's a service binding to a worker, SP can route it to a different colo as well, but what if it's a queue binding?
In essence, what i'm asking is that where is the backend for the cf queue service deployed? is it global?
Any help here, pls?
