  "why_included": "Vercel Sandboxes using Drives now start faster without SDK or configuration changes: median creation fell from 1.7s to 0.7s, and p95 from 2.2s to 1.6s.",
  "summary": "For Vercel Sandboxes that mount Drives, median creation time fell from **1.7s to 0.7s**, while p95 fell from **2.2s to 1.6s**. The improvement applies automatically.",
  "practical_implication": "Builders using these sandboxes can expect shorter startup waits without changing their SDK version or configuration. Pricing is unchanged.",

It does not establish a change for sandboxes without Drives or explain end-to-end task speed.",
