KCensus: Synthesizing Latency-Optimal Consensus Fast Paths (Extended Version)

Strongly consistent geo-replication often relies on fast paths to reduce latency in the common case of no failures or contention. Existing fast-path schemes, however, are ad hoc and restrictive: each corresponds to a point in a broad design space shaped by network topology, workload, and latency objective, so no single...
