I recently launched a website on a VPS located in the US, but I'm facing significant latency issues for users in Asia and Europe. The P90 latency is peaking around 10 seconds, which is quite frustrating. While I understand that multi-region hosting could solve this, the increased costs would be challenging for me at this early stage since my traffic is still low. I'm keen to hear if anyone has found effective, budget-friendly ways to manage global latency without having to set up full multi-region hosting. Any suggestions?

Honestly, it sounds like a CDN might be your best bet. If you're already using Cloudflare for your frontend, you should definitely take advantage of their CDN services. This could help reduce the latency for your users without breaking the bank.
If your main issue is the distance to your data, you could try optimizing your backend or databases. Consider moving critical data closer to your users. It doesn’t have to be complicated or costly, just making smarter routing choices could help.
Have you considered using a Content Delivery Network (CDN)? It's a common solution for high latency, especially for international users. CDNs can cache your content closer to where your users are located, which can significantly improve load times.
