The fastest any% completion of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (PC) was achieved by "Ielreset" (Unknown). According to figures provided by Speedrun.com, as of 11 March 2020 Ielreset topped the leaderboard with a time of 3 hours 52 minutes 7 seconds.

This record is for an any% completion not using the "AJS" or "arbitary jump in script" exploit. This trick, discovered in 2019, involves initiating the "vigilante" mini-game in the middle of a specific mission. Doing this confuses the game's code, sending the player forward through the game's script to a point in the story determined by the number of milliseconds that have past since the beginning of the game. When executed correctly, this exploit cuts around three hours from the run.
