The fastest information can ever travel is the speed of light (possibly ignoring quantum entanglement effects---I'm not up to scratch on that) and this is just a theoretical maximum, so it takes multiple clock cycles for information to travel around on a piece of hardware, and thus optimising its layout is immensely important for performance.
