So, by way of answering my own question, I found this map, which lets you work it out for yourself. Interesting stuff.

Which brings me to the question of how to benchmark now that I can make good guesses. Speedtest to US and Europe?

ETA: For those that follow, what I did was spin up multiple gluetun instances, Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, hook them to firefox with FoxyProxy (different ports, duh) and compare speeds on librespeed.org. Bottom line was the bottleneck was my ISP (surprise!!)

Still, I suspect there are ways to leverage crap internet to useful torrenting.

Japan. Any other places have some places where speed suffers because they eventually go through Japan.

I’d be going through Singapore to get to Japan, so I doubt that’d be better… Hmm maybe, after looking at the map, it might actually work out better, depends on how saturated the direct cable is I guess.

Singapore is usually the best for me but if not you could use Japan or Hong Kong

I live in Malaysia (previously China) and have been using HK and Singapore pretty much ever since, with no issues for ~6 years.
