No.. hopefully it is an entirely different experience.. And if you can do that, you should totally file a HackerOne bug bounty, and it would make you quite a nice bit of cash I am sure
I'm trying to store strings which have special unicode characters in them but the encoding doesn't seem to support them and they all turn into � (question mark) characters. Is there anything I can do about this other than convert the string to base64? I guess I could use encodeURI and decodeURI. That seems to work for now. Nevermind, this is not an issue with KV, instead this was an issue with how I'm sending the request to my worker.
KV works by having central storage then on read caching the value at the PoP. So, a high initial read value is indeed expected and then it'll sit at ~10-25ms
Here's a graph of initial read times in a bunch of areas
So yeah you're doing the whole request time, ok so a lot contributes to that. I'd check firstly what kind of response time is it to the PoP in general. So I'd hit /cdn-cgi/trace and see what the timings are like
