We've wanted to put Quicksilver in customers' hands for a long time now, and with this release we finally have! Workers KV Instant is built on top of Quicksilver, serves reads in around 2ms at p99, and pushes writes to every Cloudflare location in about 1/4 sec. blog.cloudflare.com/workers-kv-i...

2ms p99 is wild for something globally replicated in a quarter second. curious how it behaves under read-after-write right after the replication window, that's usually where kv-style stores show their seams.

It is wild! Strict read after write is not guaranteed by design with KV Instant as it's not meant for transactions or application data. It's more for feature flags, circuit breakers, and other application-level config.
