SIMD-0675 would reorder Solana's leader schedule so nearby leaders go one after another. Replayed on 10 recent epochs, this geo-aware schedule would cut the mean leader hop in half (3,657 → 1,808km). Asia and the US gain the most (20-27ms per handover); Europe ~9ms.
AI visual note: A bar chart titled "A geo-aware schedule cuts handoff delay most in Asia and the US west" compares estimated distance delay at the handoff between Solana's current schedule and a proposed SIMD-0675 geo-aware schedule across various regions. Singapore and Brazil show the largest current delays (64ms and 65ms respectively), with the new schedule reducing them to 36ms and 53ms, saving 27ms and 12ms per handoff, while regions like Slovakia (8ms) and Switzerland (7ms) see only marginal improvements. The image directly supports the post's claim by visually demonstrating that Asia (Singapore, Japan, Hong Kong) and US regions would benefit most from the geo-aware schedule with 22-27ms reductions per handover, while European regions show smaller, roughly 9ms improvements, reinforcing the post's point about the asymmetric geographic gains.
