Vercel Sandbox snapshot creation is now up to 10x faster
Vercel Sandbox creates snapshots up to 10 times faster, reducing median snapshot time from 4.4 seconds to under 0.4 seconds. Snapshot restore speeds at p50 improve by 50 percent from 500 ms to 250 ms using optimized Vercel Hive Snapshot frame reuse and parallelized base image restoration.
Why it matters: Existing snapshots retain the legacy format, requiring new sessions to adopt the update automatically without configuration changes or manual migration steps.

Vercel Sandbox with Drives now starts up to 2.4x faster
Vercel reduced startup times for Sandboxes that mount Drives. Median creation time decreased from 1.7 s to 0.7 s, and p95 dropped from 2.2 s to 1.6 s without requiring SDK upgrades or configuration changes.
Why it matters: Faster sandbox creation reduces latency in ephemeral development environments and CI pipelines without requiring any migration effort or cost increases.
