you probably only need to worry about this if you have a busy forum serving mega-topics and lots of image uploads. if latency due to distance becomes an issue you can alway configure a cdn like cloudflare but i doubt you need it. one of my smaller forums easily serves over the atlantic and continental north america from EU without a CDN.
