As title, I want to know how much time Appwrite Cloud wait for Functions until it gets hibernated (cold start). 30m? 1h?

Summary

Title: Appwrite Cloud Function Hibernation Time Inquiry Developers want to know the exact time before Appwrite Cloud Functions get hibernated, specifically in relation to a Gemini API proxy project to avoid latency issues. The hibernation time is set at 600 seconds or 10 minutes according to the Appwrite configuration file found on Github.

I think this is 600 seconds, so 10 minutes

On Cloud, its something we manipulate from time to time, trying to find best balance between cost and speed.

Is this something you would need customized for your project? Does your script depend on it?

I'm going to make a Gemini API proxy, and I think it should not be hibernated because customers would want low latency.

So I was gonna think about pinging every interval not to get hibernated
