As a general rule you'll want your server to be as close to your customer base as possible to optimize download speeds.

Optionally, you could also use a CDN like Cloudflare to optimize delivery speeds globally, with additional security.

.com is just a word, it won't affect your website load time! Website load time depends only on the servers and not about domain name!
