Ask HN: Is your Google CloudShell provisioned in Asia region?

I recently have started relying Google CloudShell as my remote development workspace. One thing I noticed is that all of my shells seem to come up in Google's Taiwan datacenter, so the latency to the US is horrible (100ms+ ping).

Are you also experiencing this? You can check by `curl http://checkip.amazonaws.com` and then looking up the IP in a geoip database.
